The induced emf in a 3.3 kV, 4-pole, 3-phase star-connected synchronous motor is considered to be equal and in phase with the terminal voltage under no-load condition.
On application of a mechanical load, the induced emf phasor is deflected by an angle of \( 2^\circ \) mechanical with respect to the terminal voltage phasor.
If the synchronous reactance is \( 2 \, \Omega \), and stator resistance is negligible, then the motor armature current magnitude, in amperes, during loaded condition is closest to:

\text{(round off to two decimal places).}
