Question

Three conductors fitted, side by side in the stator of a salient-pole alternator. Each generates .maximum voltage of 200V (sinusoidal). The angle subtended- at the ; Centre of the stat between, adjacent conductors is 20 electrical degrees. If the three conductors are connected series, find..'(a) the rms value of the effective voltage and (b)the breadth factor. Using  the

theory that is the basis of this problem, give one; reason Why three phase current has be introduced.
