_______________method can bring the locomotive to dead stop?
Correct answer: A. Plugging braking
- A. Plugging braking
- B. Rheostatic braking
- C. Regenerative braking
- D. None of the above
Explanation
Plugging applies a reverse torque by reversing the motor connections, producing rapid braking and bringing the locomotive to a dead stop. Rheostatic and regenerative braking remove energy more gradually and normally require a final mechanical stop.
