Question

A fan operates at 200V (dc) consuming 1000W when running at full speed. Its internal wiring has resistance 1Ω. When the fan runs at full speed, its speed becomes constant. This is because the torque due to magnetic field inside the fan is balanced by the torque due to air resistance on the blades of the fan and the torque due to friction between the fixed part and the shaft of the fan. The electric power going into the fan is spent (i) in the internal resistance as heat, call it P1, (ii) in doing work against internal friction and air resistance producing heat, sound, etc., call it P2. When the coil of fan rotates, an emf is also induced in the coil. This opposes the external emf is also induced in the coil. This opposes the external emf applied to send the current to the fan. This emf is called back emf, call it e. Answer the following questions when the fan is running at full speed.The current flowing into the fan and the value of back emf e is

Solution

The correct option is D 5A,195V
E=200V,R=1Ω,P=P1+P2=1000W

Current I=PE=1000200=5A

Back emf e=EIR=2005×1=195V
