An induction motor is identical to_________?
Correct answer: D. asynchronous motor
- A. D.C. compound motor
- B. D.C. series motor
- C. synchronous motor
- D. asynchronous motor
Explanation
An induction motor has no electrical connection to its rotor and therefore runs asynchronously, with a small slip below synchronous speed. Hence, it is also called an asynchronous motor.
