In a DC motor, the_____ contains a laminated, soft-iron core, coils, and a commutator, all mounted on a rotatable steel shaft.

What is armature assembly

100
The speed of the ____ DC motor varies very little with changes in load.  When all load is removed, it assumes a speed slightly higher than the loaded speed.  This motor is particularly suitable for use when constant speed is desired and when high starting torque is not needed.

What is shunt. 

100

DC motor speed can be controlled by varying the current in the :

What is field windings

100

The eddy current losses are reduced by ____ the field poles, frame and armature.

What is laminating. 

100

The term that describes the combined resistive forces in an AC circuit is?

What is impedance. 

200

In a DC motor, the consists of the field frame, the pole pieces, and the field coils.

What is Field assembly

200

The ____ DC motor is a combination of the series and shunt motors.  There are two windings in the field: a shunt winding and a series winding.

What is compound.

200

The three-phase AC induction motor is also called a ____ motor. 

What is squirrel cage. 

200

The reactance of the armature is reduced by using a ____ embedded in the pole pieces.

What is compensating winding. 

200

The working voltage of a capacitor in an ac circuit should be:

At least 50 percent greater than the highest applied voltage. 

300

In a DC motor, the ______ consists of the brushes and their holders.

What is the brush Assembly.


300

When the armature in a DC motor rotates in a magnetic field, a voltage is induced in its windings.  This voltage is called the back or counter emf and is opposite in direction to the voltage applied to the motor from the external source.  This counter emf opposes the current, which causes the armature to:

What is rotate. 

300

A single-phase AC motor has _____ stator windings.

What is only one. 

300

The schematic symbol for the motor is what?? First to draw wins. 

correct. 

300

Potential difference is measured in______.

What is volts. 

400

In a DC motor, the bearing for the drive end is located in the_____?

What is end frame. 

400

DC motors built for intermittent dury can be operated for short periods only and, then, must be allowed to ____ before being operated again.

What is cool down. 

400

The direction of rotation of a three-phase induction motor can be changed by simply____ two of the leads to the motor. 

What is reversing. 

400

The stationary portion of an AC induction motor is called a stator, and the rotating member is called a :

What is rotor. 
400

The correct way to connect a voltmeter in a circuit is ____. 

What is parallel. 

500

Because of the low resistance in the windings, the DC_____ motor is able to draw a large current during starting (low RPM) and the current will decrease as the RPM increases.

What is series.

500

By reversing the direction of the current flow in either the armature or the field windings, the direction of a DC motor's rotation may be:

What is reversed. 

500

An AC series motor is a single-phase motor but is not an induction or synchronous motor. It resembles a DC motor in that it has:

What is brushes and cummutator.

500

The_____ on an AC motor usually gives the number of poles and the speed at which the motor is designed to run. 

What is data plate.
