The rotor of a single-phase induction motor is

  • A.a commutator-wound armature with brushes upon it
  • B.a cage of the same kind as in a three-phase machine
  • C.a wound rotor brought out to slip rings for resistance control
  • D.a set of permanent magnets bonded to a steel hub

Answer: B

Correct answer: a cage of the same kind as in a three-phase machine

The rotor is an ordinary squirrel cage, identical in principle to that of a three-phase machine. Everything distinguishing the single-phase machine is in the stator - the auxiliary winding, the capacitor, the switch or the shading rings - which is why the rotor is the simplest part of it.
