Q.

When the supply terminals of a dc shunt motor are interchanged 

  • AThe motor will stop
  • BThe motor will run at its normal speed in the same direction as before
  • CThe direction of rotation will reverse
  • DThe motor will run much faster in the same direction
Correct Answer : (B)

The motor will run at its normal speed in the same direction as before

Hints :

When the supply terminals of a dc shunt motor are interchanged, the motor will run at its normal speed in the same direction as before.

Previous

A dc shunt motor is driving a constant torque load with normal excitation. If the filed current is halved then the motor will run at 

Next

A dc shunt motor is driving a mechanical load at rated voltage with normal excitation. If the load torque is increased to double of the normal one, the speed of the motor will
