Question 1

What is the formula for calculating synchronous speed?

  • Ns = (120P)/f
  • Ns = (120f)/P
  • Ns = (f)/P

💡 Hint: Remember the correct order of frequency and poles in the formula.

Question 2

True or False: Slip refers to the precise speed at which the magnetic field rotates.

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Think about what happens when the rotor reaches synchronous speed.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

An induction motor has a synchronous speed of 1500 RPM. If the motor operates at full load with a speed of 1440 RPM, calculate the slip and the torque developed.

💡 Hint: Focus first on calculating the slip.

Question 2

Calculate the expected synchronous speed of a 6-pole motor operating on a 50 Hz supply. How does the number of poles affect this speed?

💡 Hint: Make sure to apply the synchronous speed formula correctly.
