A dc shunt generator has a speed of 800 rpm when delivering 20 A to the load at the
terminal voltage of 220V. If the same machine is run as a motor it takes a line
current of 20A from 220V supply. The speed of the machine as a motor will be
(A) 800 rpm. (B) more than 800 rpm.
(C) less than 800 rpm. (D) both higher or lower than 800 rpm.

A 4 pole lap wound dc shunt motor rotates at the speed of 1500 rpm, has a flux of 0.4 mWb and the total number of conductors are 1000. What is the value of emf? (A) 100 Volts. (B) 0.1 Volts. (C) 1 Volts. (D) 10 Volts.
Answer : Ans: D Given N = 1500 rpm, Φ = 0.4 mWb, Z = 1000, P = 4, & A= 4 Therefore, Eb = NΦPZ / 60 A = 1500 x 0.4 x 4 x 1000 x 10^-3 / 60 x 4 = 60/6 = 10 volts...
