If the brushes of that machine are shifted forward by 9 degrees, the demagnetising ampere-turns per pole are

  • A.125
  • B.250
  • C.2,250
  • D.2,500

Answer: B

Correct answer: 250

\[ AT_d = AT \times \frac{2\theta}{180} = 2500 \times \frac{18}{180} = 250. \] So a nine-degree shift converts a tenth of the armature ampere-turns into demagnetising ones, leaving 2,250 still cross-magnetising. That is the cost of using a brush shift for commutation, and it is why interpoles are preferred.
