For starting a D.C. motor a starter is required because
it starts the motor
none of the above
it limits the speed of the motor
it limits the starting current to a safe value
For constant torque drive which speed control method is preferred ?
Shunt armature control
Mechanical loading system
Field control
Armature voltage control
For a D.C. shunt motor if the excitation is changed
torque and power both will change
torque, power and speed, all will change
torque will remain constant
torque will change but power will remain constant
Following motor is used where high starting torque and wide speed range control is required.
Single phase capacitor start
Induction motor
Synchronous motor
D.C. motor
Flywheel is used with D.C. compound motor to reduce the peak demand by the motor, compound motor will have to be
