A compound motor develops a torque of 271 lb-ft when it is operating at 1200 rpm, under which condition its armature current Ia is 215 amperes. What will be the developed horsepower of the motor if the load is increased so that it slows down to 1,1120 rpm in which case Ia changes to 238 amperes and the total flux increases by 8 percent?
