In an ac induction motor, the stator produces a rotating magnetic field that induces current in the rotor windings. The rotor current generates a magnetic field in opposition to the magnetic field of the stator, thereby causing the rotor to turn.A. TrueB. False

A. True

According to the Faraday-Lenz law, the current in the rotor is generated by the change in the magnetic flux due to the rotating stator, the polarity of the induced current is such that it produces a magnetic field that opposes the change in magnetic flux that produced it. Which causes the rotor to turn
