A 480 V, 2-poles, 60 Hz, Y-connected induction motor has an inductive reactance of 4ohm and the resistance of R, = 0.2ohm and R', 0.3ohm. The motor is driving a constant-torque load of 150 Nm at a speed of 3500 rpm. Assume that this torque includes the rotational components. Calculate the motor speed and starting current if the frequency is decreased to 50 Hz.
