In case of D.C. machines, mechanical losses are primary function of____________?
Correct answer: C. speed
- A. current
- B. voltage
- C. speed
- D. none of above
Explanation
Mechanical losses consist mainly of friction and windage, both of which increase with rotational speed. They are therefore primarily speed-dependent rather than directly voltage- or current-dependent.
