  1. A permanent-magnet DC motor has armature resistance Ra = 2 ohms, armature voltage Va = 200 V, and operates under no-load conditions at a speed of N rpm drawing armature current Ia of 0.5 A. When load is connected, the motor speed drops by 20%. Determine the power efficiency of the motor under the loaded conditions. Assume that the motor losses consist solely of heating of Ra and frictional loss torque that is independent of speed. For N value in rpm take the last four digits of your student ID number. (100 marks).
