A belt driven 60 kW dc shunt generator running at 500 rpm is supplying full
load to a bus bar at 200 V. At what speed will it run if the belt breaks and the
machine continue to run taking 5 kW from the bus bar? The armature and field
resistances are

One of the two similar 500 V dc shunt machines X and Y running light takes 3
A. When X is mechanically coupled to Y, the input to X is 3.5 A with Y unexcited
and 4.5 A when Y is separately excited to generate 500 V. Calculate the friction
and windage loss and core loss of each machine.
