Question: Here is the text from the image: - - - * * Example L 8 - 8 [ PEO May 2 0 1 2 ]

Here is the text from the image:---**Example L8-8[PEO May 2012]**A 480V,6-pole, 60 Hz, Y-connected synchronous generator has a per-phase synchronous reactance 1 per phase and negligible armature resistance. Its full-load armature current is 60 A at a 0.8 power factor (pf) lagging. The generator has friction and windage losses of 1.5 kW, and core losses of 1.0 kW at full load. The field current has been adjusted so that the no-load terminal voltage is 480 V.(a) What is the speed of rotation of the generator?(b) What is the terminal voltage and voltage regulation of the generator if: (i) it is loaded with the rated current and 0.8 pf lagging; and, (ii) it is loaded with the rated current and 0.8 pf leading?(c) What is the efficiency of this generator when it is operating with rated current and the pf is 0.8 lagging?(d) How much shaft torque must be applied by a prime mover at full load?---
