A 3-phase, 50-Hz induction motor with its rotor star-connected gives 500-V(r.m.s.) at standstill between the slip-rings on open-circuit. Calculate the current and power factor at standstill when the rotor winding is joined to a star-connected external circuit, each phase of which has a resistance of 10 Q and an inductance of 0.04 H. The resistance per phase of the winding is 0.2 Q and its inductance is 0.04 H. Also, calculate the current and power factor when the slip-rings are short-circuited and the motor is running with a slip of 5 per cent. Assume flux remain constant.
