Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A motor is a device that directs current in electrical energy form to mechanical energy, which is known as direct current (DC) motors.

DC motors are of three types: (a) The series motor, (b) The shunt motor, and (c) the compound motor. Our main focus here is the Compound motor, which is further sub-divided into:

i) The cumulative compound motors

ii) The differential compound motors

The difference between these two are:

Cumulative compound motors Differential compound motors

In cumulative compound motors, In differential compound motors,

both the series and shunt windings both series and shunt are

are connected in a way that, connected in a way that the

production of fluxes through them production of fluxes via them

assist each other i.e. they aid each always opposes each other i.e.

other in the production of magnetism they oppose each other in the

production of magnetism.
