As resistance is removed from the rotor circuit, the rotor speed will continue to increase until its speed matches the synchronous speed of the field developed by the stator windings.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The rotor speed of an induction motor can never reach the synchronous speed of the stator field. As the rotor speed approaches the synchronous speed, the relative motion between the rotor and the magnetic field decreases, reducing the induced current in the rotor and thus the torque, preventing the rotor from actually reaching synchronous speed.
