Regarding an induction motor, what does the power developed by the rotor automatically adjust itself to?

🔍 Key Concepts

• Relationship between mechanical load on the shaft and motor output • How slip in an induction motor changes when the load changes • Difference between electrical quantities (current, torque) and the mechanical requirement of the driven machine

💭 Think About

• When the load on the motor shaft increases, what changes inside the motor so that the new load can still be driven? • Which quantity must ultimately match what the driven equipment (pump, fan, winch, etc.) actually needs in order to keep running steadily? • Think about the steady operating point on a motor’s torque–speed curve: what is being balanced there?

✅ Before You Answer

• Distinguish between what the rotor develops and what the load demands • Decide which option describes a resulting condition (like speed or torque) versus the underlying quantity that must supply the load • Confirm which choice best represents the output delivered to the shaft rather than an internal electrical variable
