A 2-pole, 50 Hz, 3-phase induction motor supplies power to a certain load at 2970 rpm. The torque-speed curve of this machine follows a linear relationship between synchronous speed and 95 % of synchronous speed. Assume mechanical and stray losses to be zero. If the load torque of the motor is doubled, the new operating speed of the motor, in rpm, is
