What assurance is there that the rotor will lock into step at the synchronous speed with the use of a timing relay?

What is the assurance of the synchronization with the use of a timing relay to lock the rotor of a motor at the synchronous speed.
Answer to Problem 1SQ
The only assurance is that if the timing period of the relay is adjusted for the rotor’s maximum acceleration, then the rotor will be near the synchronizing speed.
Explanation of Solution
A motor can be operated at the synchronous speed by exciting the DC field using the definite time-delay relay in a timed, semiautomatic synchronizing installation process. In the starting cycle, the delay-in-closing contact TR of the timing relay is closed to accelerate the rotor until it reaches the synchronizing point. Timing relay has the timer setting; it can be adjusted to the maximum time required to accelerate the rotor to reach the synchronous point, and after completing the synchronizing process of the motor, the attempt may not be successful, or the rotor may reach the maximum near to the synchronous speed.
The time relay based push-button control and timed semiautomatic control of a synchronizing installation process of the rotor are not guaranteed in achieving the synchronization on every attempt; while it fails, it is necessary to repeat the starting cycle by adjusting the timer setting of the timing relay. In every attempt, the only assurance is that if the timing period of the relay is adjusted for the rotor’s maximum acceleration, then the rotor will be near the synchronizing speed.
Conclusion:
Thus, the only assurance is that if the timing period of the relay is adjusted for the rotor’s maximum acceleration, then the rotor will be near the synchronizing speed.

Just extend the model given in question 1 to include an additional two species x2 and x3. You can assume simple irreversible mass-action kinetic on each reaction. I recommend you use the following values for the rate constants: 1 = 0.6; k2 = 1.8; k3 = 0.5; k40.04. This will enable you to more easily answer the following questions. You can also assume that the input is the source X and you can set its value to one. You may find that the plot of the phase change at x3 is broken at -180 degrees because it wraps around. To avoid this you can use the method: phase = np.unwrap(phase) to make sure the phase plot is continuous. [10] i) Compute and show the Bode plots for x1, x2 and x3 with respect to the input Xo.

The alphas are zombies that turned all of the zombies in its army. If you can take down this one zombie, all the others pouring into the room should fall as well. Luckily, your group was prepared for this eventuality. Another member of your team has constructed the zombie shocker circuit shown in Figure 5, using some batteries for the voltage source, some rusty metal for the resistors and a coil of wire for the inductor.
