Assertion (A): Normal excitation of a synchronous motor rises with load.

Reason (R): The demagnetising armature reaction grows with the armature current.

Select the correct option.

  • A.A is false but R is true, normal excitation being one fixed value
  • B.Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A
  • C.Both A and R are true, but R is not the correct explanation of A at all
  • D.A is true but R is false, armature reaction being independent of the current

Answer: B

Correct answer: Both A and R are true, and R is the correct explanation of A

Both are true and the reason gives the mechanism. Normal excitation is the field current giving unity power factor, and as the load rises the armature current rises with it, so its demagnetising effect grows and more field current is needed to offset it. Normal excitation is therefore a curve rather than a single value.
