  1. A 6-pole, 50 Hz wound rotor induction motor when supplied at the rated voltage and frequency with slip-ring open-circuited, developed a voltage of 100 V between any two rings. If the rotor is driven by an external means at 1000 rpm opposite to the direction of stator field, the frequency of voltage across slip-rings will be _______ Hz .
    1. 50 Hz
    2. 100 Hz
    3. 300 Hz
    4. None of the above
Correct Option: B

ns =
120 × 50
= 1000 rpm.

Rotor is driven in opposite direction, hence slip
=
1000 + 1000
= 2
1000

∴ Frequency of voltage across the slip ring = s.ns = 2 × 50 = 100 Hz
