A direct current motor is connected to a 250-volt DC supply. The armature has a current draw of 165 amperes when operating at full load. You have been assigned the task of connecting two resistors in the armature circuit to provide speed control for the motor. When both resistors are connected in the circuit, the armature current is to be limited to 50% of the full-load current draw. When only one resistor is connected in the circuit, the armature current is to be limited to 85% of full-load current. Determine the ohmic value and min-imum power rating of each resistor.

A belt-driven 202 Hp shunt wound DC generator is running at 465 rpm and issupplying full load to a bus bar at 232 V. At what speed will it run if the belt breaksand the machine continue to run taking 9 kW from the bus bar? The armature andthe field resistances are 0.05 Ohm and 100 Ohms respectively. The brush contactdrop is 2 Volts per brush.
