[6 marks]
A \(100\mathrm{~kW},600\mathrm{~V},400\mathrm{rpm}\) dc series wound motor in a light transit tram has a combined field and armature resistance of \(0.165\Omega \). The magnetizing curve at 400 rpm is as follows:
(a) Find the rated armature current of this machine;
(b) Draw the flux (\( k \phi \)) field current curve;
(c) Determine the initial starting torque when the starting current is limited to 340 A .
