    Question

    A separately excited DC motor runs at 1000 rpm1000\text{ rpm} on no load when its armature terminals are connected to a 200 V200\text{ V} DC source and the rated voltage is applied to the field winding. The armature resistance of this motor is 1 Ω1\text{ }\Omega. The no-load armature current is negligible. With the motor developing its full load torque, the armature voltage is set so that the rotor speed is 500 rpm500\text{ rpm}. When the load torque is reduced to 50%50\% of the full load value under the same armature voltage conditions, the speed rises to 520 rpm520\text{ rpm}. Neglecting the rotational losses, the full load armature current (in Ampere) is _______.
