A 220V DC series motor derives a load certain speed load and it takes a current of. Botharmature and field resistances are equal to 0.75Ω. The speed needs to be reduced by 70%by making some amendments in the motor circuit. One possible design is adding an extraresistance in series with a motor circuit. In this design, torque is not remained constant andis proportional to the square of the speed of the motor. (a) Estimate this extra resistance. Draw the amended circuit diagram. (b) Also suggest any other possible design ( with circuit diagram) to reduce the speed as torqueremains constant. (c) Is there any risk to start this machine without load without any amendment? If yes, pleaseexplain.
