5. A three-phase six-pole 60-cycle 230-volt wound-rotor motor has its stator connected

in delta and its rotor in star. There are 75 percent as many rotor conductors as stator

conductors. Calculate the voltage and frequency between slip rings if normal voltage is

applied to the stator when (a) the rotor is at rest; (b) the rotor slip is 0.04; (c) the rotor is

driven by another machine at 800 rpm in a direction opposite from that of the revolving

field.

connection rotor, with the same number of conductors on each. The rotor resistance

and reactance at standstill are 0.18 and 0.75 ohm per phase, respectively. If the voltage

impressed on the stator is 110 and the frequency is 60 cycles, calculate the rotor

current: (a) at starting; (b) when the speed is 1,720 rpm.
