    Solution to problems

    Prepared by: A. DE LA CRUZ


    Sample No. 1
    A 240-V DC motor is connected long shunt. The
    armature resistance is 0.4 ohm, the series field
    resistance is 0.2 ohm, and the shunt field
    resistance is 240 ohms. If the armature takes 35
    amp from the 240-V source. Find the efficiency of
    the motor if the stray power loss is 900-W.
    Sample No. 2
    A 15-hp 220-V DC shunt motor draws an armature
    current of 60 amp at full load. The armature
    resistance including brushes is 0.26 ohm. Calculate
    the total resistance of the starting box which will
    permit this motor to develop a starting torque
    equal to twice that of full load.
    EC
    Sample No. 3
    An electric truck is propelled by a DC motor driven
    by a 110-volts storage battery. The truck is
    required to exert a tractive effort of 200-lb at a
    speed of 5-mph. The overall efficiency of the
    motor and drive is 70%. What is the current drawn
    from the battery?
