A voltmeter gives 120 oscillations per minute when connected to the rotor of an induction motor. The supply frequency is 50 Hz. The slip of the motor is:

A) 2%
B) 4%
C) 5%
D) 25%


✅ Answer:

➡️ B) 4%


🧠 Detailed Solution

◆ Step 1: Convert Oscillations to Frequency

➡️ Given: 120 oscillations per minute

fr=12060=2Hz

◆ Step 2: Use Slip Relation

fr=s×f2=s×50s=250=0.04

◆ Step 3: Convert into Percentage

s=0.04=4%

❌ Why Other Options Are Incorrect

◆ A) 2% → गलत calculation
◆ C) 5% → गलत relation use
◆ D) 25% → बहुत high slip (not practical here)


🔑 Key Points to Remember

◆ Rotor frequency: fr=sf
◆ Oscillations/min → divide by 60 to get Hz
◆ Slip is usually small (2–5%) in normal operation
◆ Rotor frequency is always low at full load


🎯 Final Conclusion

➡️ Slip of motor =
4% ✔️
