Speed torque characteristic of a repulsion induction motor is similar to that of a D.C____________?
Correct answer: C. compound motor
- A. shunt motor
- B. series motor
- C. compound motor
- D. separately excited motor
Explanation
A repulsion-induction motor combines high starting torque with better running speed regulation than a simple repulsion motor, giving a characteristic similar to a DC compound motor. It therefore falls between the strongly varying series characteristic and the nearly constant-speed shunt characteristic.
