Why is it that when determining the percentage increase in the flux per pole of a generator, the first digit is not considered? e.g A d.c. generator running at 30 rev/s generates an e.m.f. of 200 V. Determine the percentage increase in the flux per pole required to generate 250 V at 20 rev/s. The answer for this question is said to be 87.5% NOT 187.5% ?
