Q.

Increase in length of air gap in an induction motor causes

  • ADecrease in power factor
  • BDecrease in pulsation losses
  • CIncrease the ampere turns required to produce same flux density in the air gap
  • DAll of the above
Correct Answer : (D)

All of the above

Hints :

Increase in length of air gap in an induction motor causes Decrease in power factor, Decrease in pulsation losses and Increase the ampere turns required to produce same flux density in the air gap.
