A dc separately excited motor has constant field current. The armature is fed from a single phase supply through a full converter. When a = 0, speed is 500 rpm. If a = 45°, the speed is likely to be
Correct Answer: about 125 rpm
Explanation:
Average output voltage ∝ cos a and therefore reduced to 0.707 of the value for a = 0. Speed is nearly proportional to voltage.
