The injected e.m.f. in the rotor of induction motor must have__________?

Correct answer: B. the same frequency as the slip frequency

  • A. zero frequency
  • B. the same frequency as the slip frequency
  • C. the same phase as the rotor e.m.f.
  • D. high value for the satisfactory speed control

Explanation

The rotor e.m.f. exists at slip frequency, so an injected e.m.f. must have the same frequency to produce effective speed control. A zero-frequency or unrelated-frequency injection would not properly control the rotor current.
