In repulsion motor direction of rotation of motor____________?
Correct answer: B. is the same as that of brush shift
- A. is opposite to that of brush shift
- B. is the same as that of brush shift
- C. is independent of brush shift
Explanation
In a repulsion motor, shifting the brushes changes the direction of the armature current and hence the torque. The motor rotates in the same direction as the brush shift.
