An induction motor having full load torque of $$60$$ $$Nm$$ when delta-connected develops a starting torque of $$120$$ $$N$$-$$m.$$ For the same simply voltage, if the motor is changed to star-connection, the starting torque developed will be

In an induction motor, if the air gap is increased

An induction motor is fed from a balanced three phase supply at rated voltage and frequency through a bank of three single phase transformers connected in delta-delta. One unit of the bank develops fault and is removed. Then

Skew is used in induction motors in order to reduce torque due to
