If a D.C. shunt motor is working at no load and if shunt field circuit suddenly opens

A Nothing will happen to the motor
B This will make armature to take heavy current, possibly burning it
C This will result in excessive speed, possibly destroying armature due to excessive centrifugal stresses
D Motor will run at very slow speed

Correct Answer: This will result in excessive speed, possibly destroying armature due to excessive centrifugal stresses
