If the question is asked correctly and if graphite conducts electricity (I don't know if it does) then any pencil lead on a conductor would infinitesimally decrease the resistance of the circuit, too small to matter. Metal shavings and other debris that conduct electricity are very dangerous because very often it falls into places where you do not want current to flow.

If you are referring to "penciling" the insulation on a conductor then please restate the question and I will be happy to answer it for you.

What effect does the pencil lead have on the speed of a motor?

Pencil lead applied to the moving parts will improve performance by reducing friction. This may or may not increase the speed of the motor for a given power supply.

What factors determine the synchronous speed of an AC motor?

Number of poles and supply freqency determines speed of synchronous motor. For speed control of such motors Variable Freqency Drives(VFD) are used.


If you increase or decrease the frequency what effect on electrical machin?

If you're talking about an electric motor, increasing the frequency will increase the speed of rotation of the motor, and decreasing the frequency will decrease the speed of rotation of the motor. The other way of controlling a motor is to control the current; increasing the current increases speed, decreasing current decreases speed.


How the fan regulator conrolled the speed of fan?

Through a restrictive process of limiting the amount of electricity to the fan motor.


Does ceiling fan consume less electricity on high speed?

Ceiling fans use less electricity on low speed than they do on medium and high speed. Capacitors are used to control the various fan speeds. The capacitor limits the amount of electricity supplied to the fan motor. When less electricity is sent to the windings in the motor, the fan spins at a lower RPM. The result is a slower speed and less airflow. However, some fans move almost no air at low speeds, so it is important to know what the CFM/watts is for the ceiling fan in question so you can compare the performance at any given speed relative to the amount of electricity used


What is the effect of increasing number of poles on the speed of an induction motor?

As the number of poles (P) increases, the speed of an induction motor (N) decreases. As seen by the formula: N=(120*f)/P

How do you calculate how much electricity a DC motor will generate?

A DC motor will generate electricity, if used in reverse. IE, rotate it and electricity will be generated. The voltage will be dependant on the speed of rotation. The capacity (Amperage) will depend on the size of the windings and diameter of copper wire involved. Limitation to power and speed will also be limited by the construction of the commutator. All these variables are difficult to predict and unlikely a formula is available. You will need empirical means and careful testing, especially as the motor was not intended to be used in this way.
