Q3:A: (a) A 10-hp 230-volt shunt-wound motor has rated speed of
1000 rpm and full-load efficiency of 86 percent. Armature-circuit
resistance, 0.26 ohm; field-circuit resistance, 225-ohms. If this motor
is operating under rated load and the field flux is very quickly
reduced to 50 percent of its normal value, what will be the effect
upon back emf, armature current and torque? What effect will this
change have upon the operation of the motor, and what will be
its speed when stable operating conditions have been regained?
Please answer this question, Thankyou
