The e.m.f. generated by a shunt wound D.C. generator isE. Now while pole flux remains constant, if the speed of the generator is doubled, the e.m.f. generated will be_______________?

Correct answer: B. 2E

  • A. E/2
  • B. 2E
  • C. slightly less than E
  • D. E

Explanation

Generated e.m.f. follows E ∝ ΦN. With pole flux Φ constant, doubling speed N doubles the e.m.f., changing E to 2E.
