The speed of the disc servomotor can be varied by changing the amount of voltage supplied to the armature. The voltage is generally varied using _____.

A) phase
B) pulse-width
C) frequency
D) amplitude

Voltage

The electrical potential difference between two points, or the force that drives an electric current between those points.

Armature

The rotating part of an electric machine, such as a motor or generator, around which the electromotive force is generated.

Pulse-width

The duration of time that a pulse in a pulse modulation system is at a high or significant level, important in determining signal characteristics.

  • Determine and apprehend how voltage, resistance, and magnetic fields influence motor performance.
  • Develop an understanding of how speed regulation in DC motors is influenced by the load and circuitry components.

Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
Pulse-width modulation (PWM) is a common method used to vary the voltage supplied to the armature of a servomotor, thereby controlling its speed. This technique involves varying the width of the pulses in a pulse train to adjust the average voltage and power supplied to the motor.
