The magnetic feild of a 3 phase motor rotor is caused by
- A.
Current flow in the rotor
- B.
Resistance in the rotor
- C.
Current flow on the stator
- D.
Resistance to the stator
Correct Answer
A. Current flow in the rotorExplanation
The magnetic field of a 3 phase motor rotor is caused by the current flow in the rotor. When current flows through the rotor windings, it creates a magnetic field that interacts with the stator's magnetic field, resulting in the rotation of the motor. The resistance in the rotor does not directly cause the magnetic field, but it affects the current flow in the rotor. The current flow on the stator is responsible for creating the stator's magnetic field, which interacts with the rotor's magnetic field to generate torque. Resistance to the stator is not relevant to the generation of the magnetic field in the rotor.Rate this question:
