1. What is the best utility voltage to operate this motor at? $$ V_{util}=480V $$ 2. What is the synchronous speed of this motor? $$ n_s=120{f\over p}=120*{60Hz\over 6\ poles}\\ \overline{\underline{|n_s=1200rpm|}} $$ 3. How many poles does this motor have? 6 poles, 2 for each phase. 4. What is the slip of this motor? $$ s={n_s-n\over n_s}={1200rpm-1080rpm\over1200rpm}\\ \overline{\underline{|s=0.1|}} $$ 5. What is the mechanical output in HP of this motor at full speed? $$ 15hp(into watts)times efficiency\\ \overline{\underline{|HP=12.75hp|}} $$ 6. What is the X/R ratio of the motor? $$ 12.75hp*746w/hp=9511.5W\\ S={P\over pf}={9511.5W\over0.85}=11190VA\\ Q=\sqrt{S^2-P^2}=\sqrt{11190^2-9511.5W^2}=5894.7VAR\\ {X\over R}={P\over Q}={9511.5W\over 5894.7VAR}=1.613 $$ 7. What is the total impedance of this motor at full load (magnitude and angle)? $$ |Z|=\sqrt{R^2+X^2}=\sqrt{24.22\Omega^2+39.09\Omega^2}\\
