AI Explanation

The correct answer is A. A capacitor start, induction run motor is a type of single-phase induction motor that uses a capacitor in series with the starting winding to provide the necessary starting torque. This configuration is represented by option A in the illustration EL-0146. The other options, B, C, and D, represent different types of single-phase induction motors, such as split-phase and permanent split-capacitor motors, which have different starting mechanisms and winding configurations.
