why a three phase induction motor cannot run at synchronous
speed ?

Answer Posted / sarfraz

An induction motor cannot run at synchronous speed because it is the "slippage" of the rotor relative to the rotaing magnetic field that generates the current in the windings contained within the rotor. This induced (hence the term induction) current sets up the opposing magnetic fields that cause the rotor to rotate.
