Explanation of Solution
Given info: Magnetic field of system is
As far as the mechanical power input is concerned it only depends on the load and the velocity of the object. Since the current in electrical machinery is analogous to mechanical load, an increase in current will lead to change in mechanical load which further changes the mechanical power input.
Thus, the mechanical power input will change.
Conclusion:
Therefore, the effect of increase in resistance and current on the mechanical power input is that it will change.
(j)
Answer to Problem 31.58AP
Explanation of Solution
Given info: Magnetic field of system is
Both current and resistance can never increase as it violates Ohm’s law which says that current is inversely proportional to resistance.
In order to increase current despite increase in resistance, the load demand will increase to increase the current supply, this further increases the power.
Thus, the mechanical power input will increase if both current and resistance will increase.
Conclusion:
Thus, the mechanical power input will increase if both current and resistance will increase.
