    Doubtful about question no.10 As Ns=120F/P so how it could be option(b)Pls. clearify *b

      Thanks for reading and asking question...
      The equation Ns=12f/P is applicable to squirrel-cage Induction Motors( or simply general Induction Motor). In this equation Ns=synchronous speed, f=supply frequncy, p=no of poles

      Whereas for linear Induction motor, the linear synchronous speed Vs=2wf.
      where,
      Vs=linear synchronous speed(m/s).
      w= width of one pole-pitch(m).
      f=supply frequency(Hz)

      Linear induction motor is a kind of special Induction motor having linear stator and a linear rotor(having squirrel cage winding or simply a copper plate)...

      Thanks again...

    Thanks Elangovan, for clearing this answer actually i did not focus on linear induction motor.
