A 180V DC shunt motor drives a constant torque load at speed of 1600 rev/min the armature and field resistance are 2ohm and 100ohm reepesctively the motor draws a line current of 8.7A. Assume that a resistance is added in the field circuit to reduce the currentby 100%. Calculate the value of the added resistance and the extra field losses
