a) A 100 HP, 3 phase, 6 pole, 50 Hz induction motor has rotor impedance of (0.02+j0.15) per phase at standstill. Full load torque is obtained at 4 % slip. Calculate : (i) Full load speed (ii) Frequency of rotor current at full load. (iii) Speed at which maximum torque occurs. (iv) External resistance per phase to be inserted in the rotor circuit to get maximum torque at starting.
