To calculate the back EMF (E_b) developed in the motor when it operates on 34\frac{3}{4}43 of the full load, we can use the following formula for a separately excited DC motor:
Eb=V−IaRaE_b = V - I_a R_aEb=V−IaRa
Where:
- EbE_bEb is the back EMF,
- VVV is the supply voltage,
- IaI_aIa is the armature current,
- RaR_aRa is the armature resistance.
Step 1: Calculate the full-load armature current
The full-load current is given as 2 A. When the motor operates at 34\frac{3}{4}43 of the full load, the armature current will be:
Ia=34×2 A=1.5 AI_a = \frac{3}{4} \times 2 \, \text{A} = 1.5 \, \text{A}Ia=43×2A=1.5A
Step 2: Calculate the back EMF
Given:
- V=100 VV = 100 \, \text{V}V=100V,
- Ia=1.5 AI_a = 1.5 \, \text{A}Ia=1.5A,
- Ra=8 ΩR_a = 8 \, \OmegaRa=8Ω.
Substitute the values into the formula:
Eb=100 V−(1.5 A×8 Ω)E_b = 100 \, \text{V} - (1.5 \, \text{A} \times 8 \, \Omega)Eb=100V−(1.5A×8Ω) Eb=100 V−12 VE_b = 100 \, \text{V} - 12 \, \text{V}Eb=100V−12V Eb=88 VE_b = 88 \, \text{V}Eb=88V
Thus, the back EMF developed in the motor is 88 V.
The correct answer is (c) 88 V.
