Speed torque characteristic of a repulsion induction motor is similar to that of a D.C.

A. shunt motor

B. series motor

C. compound motor

D. separately excited motor

Answer: Option B

Solution (By Examveda Team)

The speed-torque characteristic of a repulsion induction motor is similar to that of a D.C. series motor.

This similarity is due to the fact that both motors exhibit high starting torque and a significant drop in speed with an increase in load.

Such characteristics make these motors suitable for applications requiring high starting torque, like traction systems.
