explantion
To calculate the current flowing through the armature of the DC motor, we can use Ohm’s law.
The armature current (Ia) can be calculated using the formula:
Ia = (V - Eb) / Ra
Where:
V is the supply voltage (230 V)
Eb is the back electromotive force (210 V)
Ra is the armature winding resistance (0.6 ohm)
Substituting the given values into the formula:
Ia = (230 V - 210 V) / 0.6 ohm
Ia = 20 V / 0.6 ohm
Ia ≈ 33.33 A
Therefore, the current flowing through the armature at this point is approximately 33.33 Amp (Option C).
