Assuming that you are asking about an induction type AC motor then the synchronous rotor speed (Ns) in rpm: Ns = (120 x f) / p where f is frequency and p is the number of poles Unless the motor is a synchronous motor then there is some slip that occurs. %Slip = (Ns - N)/Ns x 100 For instance a typical general purpose 460V 3 phase 10 hp 60 hz motor has a nameplate speed of 1765 rpm. The synchronous speed of this motor would be 1800 rpm as it has 4 poles: Ns = (120 x 60) / 4 = 1800 rpm %Slip = (1800 - 1765)/1800 x 100 = 1.94% slip. Generally speaking the higher the synchronous speed the higher the slip%.

What is anicidence angle of gyrocopter rotor?

The incidence angle of a gyrocopter rotor, also known as the angle of attack, refers to the angle between the chord line of the rotor blade and the relative wind or airflow. This angle is crucial for generating lift, as it affects the airflow over the rotor blades. Adjusting the incidence angle allows pilots to control lift and performance during flight. Proper management of this angle is essential for safe and efficient operation of the gyrocopter.
