How do you determine the number of poles and the size of the induction motor (in hp) if the slip is between 0.3 and 0.5?
All I know is that the slip = (synchronous speed - rotor speed)/synchronous speed, synchronous speed = (120*synchronous frequency)/number of poles

Of course it is possible that 2/12 means that the project was set on 2nd December and not 12th February (not everybody uses mm/dd/yy , some use dd/mm/yy ) so instead of 10 months and 11 days they only have 21 days.

Very true and after I read where the document originated, I'd have to go with 21 days and not my exaggeration of time which I apologize. I did find it interesting that the Instructor used 02/12/2014 as the posted date but stated it was due 23rd December 2014, a minor inconsistency.

No more inconsistent that a paper here using 12/02/2014 and then using December 23, 2014 elsewhere would be, which is not too rare to see. I tend to prefer the format 23 Dec 2014 when I can use it but if I have to use the 'slash' notation then I use the MM/DD/YY (or YYYY) convention since that is what most people in my audience will assume.
