Questions-80.A dc shunt motor is running at rated speed with rated supply voltage. If the armature voltage is reduced to half, then the speed of the motor becomes

(A) Half of the rated speed

(B) Double of the rated speed

(D) Slightly more than the rated speed

Answer-A

Solution-As we know that speed is directly proportional to back emf And Eb=V-IaRa
