Answer the following statement(s) true (T) or false (F)
1. A distinguishing feature of the synchronous motor is that it runs without slip at a speed determined by the frequency
of the connected power source and the number of poles it contains.
2. The rotor is excited by a source of direct current so that it produces simultaneous north and south poles.
3. Synchronous motors are constructed almost exactly like alternators.
4. AC loads generally have a lagging power factor.
5. A disadvantage of the synchronous motor equipped with a brushless exciter is that brush sparking is eliminated.
1. TRUE
2. FALSE
3. TRUE
