344.  In D.C. generators the polarity of the interpoles
A. is the same as that of the main pole ahead
B. is the same as that of the immediately preceding pole
C. is opposite to that of the main pole ahead
D. is neutral as these poles do not play part in generating e.m.f.

---

B. the generator runs on full load
C. the generator runs on overload
D. the generator runs on designed speed

---

347.  In a D.C. generator in order to reduce sparking at brushes, the self-induced e.m.f. in the coil is neutralised by all of the following except
A. interpoles

C. pulsating
D. flat topped

---

349.  A shunt generator running at 1000 r.p.m. has generated e.m.f. as 200 V. If the speed increases to 1200 r.p.m., the generated e.m.E will be nearly
