Expert Solution & Answer
Check Mark
To determine

Calculate the speed in rpm for of an eight pole, 240V, 60-hertz squirrel cage induction motor.

Answer to Problem 1SQ

The speed in rpm of a squirrel cage induction motor is 900rpm.

Explanation of Solution

Given data:

The number of poles (n) is 8.

The frequency (f) is 60Hz.

The line voltage (E) is 240V.

Formula Used:

Write the expression to calculate the speed in rpm of a squirrel cage induction motor.

Speedinrpm=60×HertzPairsofpoles (1)

Calculation:

The total number of poles in the motor is 8. Therefore, the number of pairs of poles of the motor is 4.

Substitute 60 for Hertz and 4 for Pairsofpoles in Equation (1) to find speed.

Speedinrpm=60×604=36004=900rpm

Conclusion:

Thus, the speed in rpm of a squirrel cage induction motor is 900rpm.
