The star-connected rotor of an induction motor has a standstill impedance of (0.4 + j4) ohm per phase and the rheostat impedance per phase is (6 + j2) ohm. The motor has induced emf of 80V between slip-rings at standstill when connected to its normal supply voltage. Find (a) rotor current at standstill with the rheostat in the circuit (b) when the slip-rings are shor circuited and the motor is running with a slip of 3%
