  1. A 250 V dc shunt machine has armature circuit resistance of 0.6 Ω. and field circuit resistance of 125 Ω. The machine is connected to 250 V supply mains. The motor is operated as a generator and then as a motor separately. The line current of the machine in both the cases is 50 A. The ratio of the speed as a generator to the speed as a motor is ___.
    1. 1.22 to 1.32
    2. 1
    3. 2
    4. 1.44
Correct Option: A

When running as a motor,

If =
250
= 2 A
125

Em = Vt – Ia ra
= 250 – 48 × 0.6 = 221.2 Volt
When running as a generator,

Eg = 52 × 0.6 + 250
= 281.2 Volt
Now, As , E =
φ n z
P
60A

Then
Em
=
nm
[φ remain constant]
Egng

Ratio of generator to motor speed,
ng
=
281.2
= 1.271
