Regenerative method of braking is based on that___________?

Correct answer: C. back e.m.f. of rotor is more than the applied voltage

  • A. back e.m.f. is less than the applied voltage
  • B. back e.m.f. is equal to the applied voltage
  • C. back e.m.f. of rotor is more than the applied voltage
  • D. none of the above

Explanation

Regenerative braking occurs when the motor operates as a generator and returns power to the supply, requiring its generated back EMF to exceed the applied voltage. Thus, the rotor back EMF is greater than the applied voltage.
