Question: A 2 3 0 V d . c . series motor operates at a rated speed of 9 0 0 r . p . m

A 230 V d.c.series motor operates at a rated speed of 900 r.p.m. and rated current of 85 A. The armature circuit resistance is 0.15 and the series field resistance is 0.2. Due to saturation effects, the flux at an armature current of 30 A is 40% of that at an armature current of 85 A. Calculate (a) the power rating of the machine in hp; (b) the motor speed in r.p.m. when the armature voltage is 230 Vand the armature current is 30 A; (c) the output torque in(b) if the machine is operating at 85% efficiency
