A shunt-wound motor has a field resistance of 350 Ω and an armature resistance of 0.2 Ω and runs off a 250 V supply. The armature current is 55 A and the motor speed is 1000 r/min. Assuming a straight-line magnetization curve, calcu- late: (a) the additional resistance required in the field circuit to increase the speed to 1100 r/min for the same armature current; (b) the speed with the original field current and an armature current of 100 A.
