A 220 V DC series motor runs drawing a current of 30 A from the supply. Armature and field
circuit resistances are 0.4 Ω and 0.1 Ω respectively. The load torque varies as the square of the
speed. The flux in the motor may be taken as being proportional to the armature current. To
reduce the speed of the motor by 50% the resistance in ohms that should be added in series with
the armature is _________.
