2) Synchronous speed of the motor=60f*/p
f=frequency of the supply
p=pole pairs per phase
f=50
p=2
Synchronous speed =1500 rpm
3) In the case of induction motor the rotor does not has a external power supply. Rotor bars are
induced by the rotating magnetic field of the stator. The sinusoidaly varying magnetic field
applied on the rotor bars are inducing a emf and since the bars are connected at ends there will
be a large current through the bars. Then that currents reacts with the rotating magnetic field and
the torque in the same direction is created. If the speed of the rotor is synchronized with the
magnetic field there will not a induced emf or currents through the rotor bars. Then the applied
torque will be zero. But always there should be some torque due to friction and other effects. So
always the rotor speed should be less than the synchronous speed. So in the motoring condition
of an induction motor the rotor speed should be less than synchronous speed.
