The e.m.f. induced in the armature of a shunt generator is 600 V. The armature resistance is 0.1 ohm. If the armature current is 200 A, the terminal voltage will be_____________?
Correct answer: D. 580 V
- A. 640 V
- B. 620 V
- C. 600 V
- D. 580 V
Explanation
For a generator, terminal voltage is approximately E minus the armature voltage drop: 600 − (200 × 0.1) = 580 V. The correct option is d.
