It isn't. It is only kept at maximum resistance when the motor is not running. That is done to limit the starting current.
First remember this rheostat is connected in series with the armature to increase the total resistance to limit the starting current, thus achieving max starting torque from the motor
In a series DC motor used for traction, the armature rheostat is there to limit the current on starting. In normal running the rheostat is set to zero ohms (maximum power) so that power is not wasted in it. At full speed the power is turned off, the vehicle then coasts along until it's time to stop.
There is nothing to limit current until opposing magnetic fields build up at generator operating speed-windings will overheat and burn.
Velocity is maximum at mean position for particle performing simple harmonic motion. Another feature that is maximum at this position is kinetic energy.
The correct term from the maximum displacement from the rest position in a wave is the Amplitude (A).
A resistor, of which a rheostat is, has a maximum amount of current it can handle. Beyond that value it will start heating up a lot and might burns up. Since, the maximum resistance of a rheostat is fixed so does its maximum safe current value that can flow through it.Comment'Rheostats' and 'potentiometers' describe applications of variable resistors; they are not alternative words for variable resistors.

The maximum movement from the middle position.
It is a variable resistor. Basically, the same as when you turn up or down the heat on an electrical oven or radio.
It is amplitude
