A D.C. series motor is that which______________?
Correct answer: A. has its field winding consisting of thick wire and less turns
- A. has its field winding consisting of thick wire and less turns
- B. has a poor torque
- C. can be started easily without load
- D. has almost constant speed
Explanation
The series field carries the full armature current and therefore uses thick wire with relatively few turns to keep its resistance low. A series motor also has high starting torque but must not be run without load.
