11. Recognize the concept of development of rotating magnetic field and torque in rotor.
11.7. Mention the relation between torque and rotor power factor.
Mention the relation between torque and rotor power factor.
What is the difference between torque and speed?
Speed of a motor is the rate at which it spins and is often given in “rpm” or rotations per minute. While torque is the amount of twisting force generated by the motor (often through a shaft). Higher speed does not necessarily imply high torque. Two motors having same speed may deliver different torque values.
