The contact drop of a brush being nearly independent of current means

  • A.the brushes cause no loss of any kind in the machine
  • B.the loss at the brushes is nearly proportional to the current
  • C.the loss at the brushes follows the square of the current
  • D.the loss at the brushes is constant whatever the current

Answer: B

With a fixed drop of about a volt per brush, the power lost is that drop times the current, which is a linear rather than a square law. On a low-voltage machine those two volts are a significant fraction of the output.
