you are right kalpana ans must be B bcoz no. Of commutator segment is equal to no. Of armature coil so that by connecting coil in series it will reduce ripple in emf

answer must be B
In a DC generator the ripples in the direct emf generated are reduced by using commutator with large number of segments. This is because commutator with large number of segments will rectify the AC emf generated in the armature to direct emf in a better way.
