Problem 3: A 460-V, 25-hp, 60 Hz, four-pole, Y-connected induction motor has the following impedances in ohms per phase referred to the stator circuit: $R_1$ = 0.6 ohms, $X_1$ = 1 ohms, $R_2$ = 0.3 ohms, $X_2$ = 0.5 ohms, $X_M$ = 25 ohms. The total rotational losses are 1000 W and are assumed to be constant.
(a) At what speed and slip does the maximum torque occur?
(b) What is the maximum output torque that can be generated by this motor?
(c) If the rotor resistance is adjustable, how much should it be to get the maximum torque at starting?
