A 15kW, 230V dc shunt motor has armature circuit resistance of 0.4 $$\Omega$$ and field circuit
resistance of 230 $$\Omega$$. At no load and rated voltage, the motor runs at 1400 rpm and the line current drawn by the motor is 5 A. At full load, the motor draws a line current of 70 A.
Neglect armature reaction. The full load speed of the motor in rpm is ________________

A separately excited DC motor runs at 1500 rpm under no-load with 200 V applied
to the armature. The field voltage is maintained at its rated value. The speed of
the motor, when it delivers a torque of 5 Nm, is 1400 rpm as shown in the figure.
The rotational losses and armature reaction are neglected.
For the motor to deliver a torque of 2.5 Nm at 1400 rpm the armature voltage to
be applied is
