A 3-phase, 400 V, 6-pole, 3-phase, 50 Hz, star-connected synchronous motor has a resistance of 0.5 N and synchronous reactance of 4 2 per phase. It takes a current of 15 A at unity power factor when operating with a certain field current. If the load torque is increased until the line current is increased to 60 A, the field current remaining unchanged, calculate the torque developed and the new power factor.
