Answer:

C) only No. 2 is true.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are actually 4 main types of DC motors. Namely Series, Shunt, and Compound and Permanent Magnet DC Motors.

The permanent motor magnet requires a permanent magnet to generate flux of field. This form of DC motor offers excellent initial torque and strong speed control, however power is restricted so they are usually used in applications with low horsepower rates.
