AI Explanation
The correct answer is B) vane motors. Vane motors are the type of air motors generally used for starting some auxiliary diesel engines. These air motors utilize rotating vanes to convert the compressed air into rotational motion, which is then used to start the diesel engine. The other options are incorrect because: A) Accumulator motors are used to store compressed air, not to start engines. C) Gear motors use gears to convert rotational motion, not compressed air. D) Plunger motors use reciprocating motion of a plunger, not rotating vanes.
