A 240 V, 4 -pole shunt motor has an armature resistance Of 0.42 and a field resistance of 2402. When driving at 700 r.p.m. aload, the torque of which is proportional to the speed, the armature current is 20A. It is desired to rise the speed from 700 to 900 r.p.m., what resistance must be inserted in the shunt field circuit, assuming the magnetization curve to be a straight line?
