When syn mtr is at no load, armature draws current required for magnetisation.

as supply having some freq. so field flux continues 2 rotate at syn speed.

understand in syn mtr speeed is constant from noload 2 full load.For u r reference "Electrical Machinery by P.S. Bhimbra" is very good book.

The question I feel is wrong as current flow in three phase winding causes flux which appears to be revolving. This revolving magnetic field poles get locked with the fixed rotor poles and thus the motor shaft rotates. Hence irrespective of load on the motor, it runs at constant synchronous speed depending on the number of poles and supply frequency.

the question asked is wrong in a sync motor,3 phase balanced armature current is supplied from an extermnal source which produces air gap rotating flux which produces a torque on sync. motor!!!...not reverse of it occurs as asked in d question??

In synchronous motor current in armature winding the current doesn't depends on load it is supplied seperately from other means, hence the question asked is wrong for synchronous motor, however induction motor have their rotor circuitary complete and also run on no load condition.

Armature winding is 3 phase winding and is supplied with 3 phase supply

Field is supplied with DC supplied

First motor is run at syn speed to lock rotor in syn speed now load is applied

Questioner is confused actually the rotating field is produced by armature not by field.

Synchronous motor: we will give dc supply to the armature as a excitation, which causes revolving flux, so that motor will rotate at synchronous speed.

if there is no excitation and the armature coils are shorted at their ends then it is called three phase induction motor.then rotating magentic flux causes current flow in conductor and as per faradays law any current carrying conductor placed in magnetic filed experience force.
