1)generator 2)brake

Constant-horsepower loads require high torque at ____1____ speed and low torque at ____2____ speed.

1)low 2)high

For Variable-torque loads, horsepower increases proportionally with ____1_____ and _____2______.

To change the speed of a DC shunt motor which method is more expensive. Which method loses torque?

Adding a rheostat to the armature of a motor is more expensive. (And electrically inefficient) Adding resistance to the field windings loses torque

__________ are the best representation of constant-torque loads

Conveyers

Most motors have a _________ ______ connected directly to the motor that rotates at rotor speed cooling the stator as the motor runs and dissipates heat.
