A 220 V self-excited shunt motor has armature and field resistances of 0.2 Ω and 220 Ω respectively. The motor is driving a load torque that is proportional to the square of its speed ( TL ∝ n2 ) and running at 1000 rpm drawing 10 A current from the supply. Neglecting armature reaction and saturation,  a) Calculate the new speed in rpm (rev/min) if an external armature resistance of value 5 Ω is inserted in the armature circuit. b) The new armature current in a) in amperes.
