| (b) | Differentiate between the operation of shunt and series DC motors. |
| (c) | Describe factors that determine the direction of rotation of shunt and series DC motors. |
| (d) | Explain the effect of flux and armature current on torque. |
| (e) | Explain the causes and effects of counter electro-motive force (EMF). |
| (f) | Provide examples of applications of shunt and series DC motors. |
