% is set to 0.001 instead of exactly 0 to avoid divide-
% by-zero problems.

s(1) = 0.001;
nm = (1 - s) * n_sync; % Mechanical speed (r/min)
wm = (1 - s) * w_sync; % Mechanical speed (rad/s)

The resulting plot is shown below:

6-8. For the motor of Problem 6-5, how much additional resistance (referred to the stator circuit) would it be
necessary to add to the rotor circuit to make the maximum torque occur at starting conditions (when the
shaft is not moving)? Plot the torque-speed characteristic of this motor with the additional resistance
inserted.
