A series motor, working on 500 V d.c. supply, runs at a speed of 1000 r.p.m when load current is 120 A. Resistance of motor is .15 ohms of which 0.04 ohms is the resistance of field. Assuming an unsaturated field, calculate the speed of motor when the torque is ½ of the full load torque and the field winding is connected in parallel with diverter resistance of 0.08 ohm
