Detailed Solution. For a constant back emf, flux is inversely proportional to the speed of the motor. If field winding is disconnected accidentally, the speed would dangerously increase in order to maintain the back emf of the motor

If the series field winding is connected across 240VDC, it then becomes a shunt motor and no longer a series motor.

Just to answer the question, if the field winding is connected across then the field losses become constant since load current does not flow through the field winding (where as in a series winding the load current flows through the field winding and hence becomes dependent on load current)

When capacitors ate connected in series the capacitance increase or decrease?

Capacitors in connected in series result in a higher voltage rating, but lower capacitance. Two 470uF 50V capacitors connected in series will give you a total of 235uF, but you can put up to 100V across the series combination. Two 470uF 50V capacitors connected in parallel will give you a total of 940uF, across which you can put 50V (the voltage rating does not change for capacitors in parallel).


Connected in series or parallel will each bulb glow brighter?

In parallel, each bulb will have full voltage applied across them. However, in series, the voltage across each bulb won't be the same as supply voltage. Thereby, bulbs connected in parallel will glow brighter.


What is DC shunt motor?

A shunt DC motor connects the armature and field windings in parallel or shunt with a common D.C. power source. This type of motor has good speed regulation even as the load varies, but does not have the starting torque of a series DC motor


Why is a capacitor connected in series with starter winding?

In single phase motors, there are two windings. 1)Main winding 2) starter (auxiliary) winding. As per the double revolving theory in 1 phase machines, motor can rotate if current in the starter winding have near to 90 deg. phase shift wrt main winding. Now current flowing through capacitor leads by 90 deg. Ideally. So this is how we can get two currents which are having phase shift wrt each other. And the machine can rotate.


How is an multimeter connected to take a measure?

Multimetres are generaly used to measure the following quantities. Voltage: multimeter is connected in parallel with the Load; Current: multimeter is connected in series with Load; Resistance: the resistor must be taken out of the circuit first, then, the probes from the multimeter are connected across the resistor,

When the dc motor is connected across an AC supply then?

It depends on the construction of the motor. If the field winding is connected in series with the armaturewinding, the motor is like a universal motor and will probably operate normally. If the field winding is connected in parallel with the armature, the motor will not run, but will draw current, make noise and get hot.


How do make a series circuit?

The components are not connected directly across the power supply. Instead they are 'daisy chained', the output of one leads into the input of the next.

How the direction can change of Permanent split capacitor motor?

A single speed permanent split capacitor AC induction motor has two separate pairs of series wound stator windings arranged at right angles to each other around the central rotor. The main run winding is connected directly to the AC power source while the secondary start winding is connected to the same source with a capacitor in series with it. The capacitor causes an electrical phase shift to the power in the start winding relative to the run winding, to produce a rotating magnetic field around the rotor which can start it turning. Since the capacitor remains in the circuit while the motor is running it's called a permanent split capacitor design.

If the rheostat were connected in series with the shunt field winding and the combination placed across a 120 V dc line what shunt field current variations could be obtained from your motor?

It could be anything, it depends on the design of the motor and whether it is a high-power or a low-power motor.
