1. A d.c. series motor lifting up a load at 5 m/sec while taking 50A at 500 V from dc mains as shown in figure Q6. The total resistance of the motor is 1 Ohm. Calculate the resistance to be added in the motor circuit in order to slow the lifting speed from 5m/sec to 4 m/sec. Assume that the electro magnetic power developed by the motor is equal to the power requiring to lifting up the load.

4. Consider the circuit shown in figure Q4.

The instantaneous value of voltage applied across the circuit is given by, v = 100sin( t) + 20sin(3 t +45 ) + 5sin(5 t +30 ) V where = 314rad/s

a) Determine the value of 'C' which will produce resonance at the 3rd harmonic frequency. b) With that value of C, find i ) An expression for the current flowing through the circuit. ii ) The r.m.s value of this current iii) The total power dissipation of the circuit.
