If the applied voltage to a dc shunt motor is halved and the load torque doubled, the armature current will be HomeDC Motor MCQsIf the applied voltage to a dc shunt motor is halved and the load torque doubled, the armature current will beQ. If the applied voltage to a dc shunt motor is halved and the load torque doubled, the armature current will beA. UnalteredB. ZeroC. DoubledD. HalvedAnswer: Doubled
A shunt motor is fitted with a field regulator for speed control. For constant torque load, the speed will be minimum when the resistance of the regulator is
