A $$3$$-phase, $$440$$ $$V,$$ $$50$$ $$Hz,$$ $$4$$ pole, slip ring induction motor is feed from the rotor side through an auto transformer and the stator is connected to a variable resistance as shown in the figure. GATE EE 2008 Electrical Machines - Induction Machines Question 19 English

The motor is coupled to a $$220$$ $$V$$, separately excited $$d.c.$$ generator feeding power to fixed resistance of $$10\Omega .$$ Two watt-meter method is used to measure the input power to induction motor. The variable resistance is adjusted such that motor recorded
$${W_1} = 1800\,W,\,\,{W_2} = - 200\,W.$$

The Speed of rotation of stator magnetic field with respect to rotor structure will be

A
$$90$$ $$rpm$$ in the direction of rotation
B
$$90$$ $$rpm$$ in the opposite direction of rotation
C
$$1500$$ $$rpm$$ in the direction of rotation
D
$$1500$$ $$rpm$$ in the opposite direction of rotation
