🔍 Key Concepts

• How an electric anchor windlass motor slows down without only using mechanical brakes • The meaning of dynamic braking in electrical machinery • Difference between electrical and mechanical methods of stopping rotation

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: in dynamic braking, is the motor usually being used briefly as a generator or just rubbing against a brake pad? • Consider what happens to the kinetic energy of the rotating parts—does it turn into heat in electrical components, or only in mechanical parts like brake shoes? • Think about which choice best describes adding a load to the motor’s circuit so it resists turning.

✅ Before You Answer

• Identify which option refers to an electrical effect rather than a purely mechanical one. • Eliminate any choices that do NOT involve the motor’s windings or current flow changing during braking. • Confirm that the option you pick could describe using the motor itself to slow the system by absorbing energy electrically.
