Correct choice is (a) Triangular
Explanation: All the conductors on the armature periphery between adjacent brushes carry currents (of constant value, UNcIc) in one direction and the current distribution alternates along the periphery. Because of commutator action, armature current distribution is in the steps of UNcIc. Thus, mmf waveform can be generalized by joining peak points to get triangular wave.
