3. A 75 KW, 60 Hz, 480V, 1176 pm, 3-© induction motor is operating under full load. Measurements indicate a power factor of 80 lagging and an efficiency of 0.90. Determine the following at rated operating conditions: a. The magnitude of the current drawn by the motor. b. The real, reactive, and complex power drawn by the motor. c. The output torque at full-load. d. The operating slip Hint: For part d, we don't know the number of poles! The only possible combinations are 2, 4, 6, and 8 poles. Find the closest Synchronous speed to the given rated speed to find the number of poles
