The same equations may bo derived directly by the integration
of the differential equation:

To get an idea on the duration of mush inngnetki tnai»k*iit«#
consider a motor field:

A A-polar motor has 8 ml (megalincn) of mapiatici flux jn^r
pole, produced by 6000 ampere turns m*m.f. per polo, arid
pates normally 500 watts in the field oxdtatioDu

That is, if to » field-exciting current, n » number of fli*M tiirnn

circuit, it is
