Understanding induction motors

+2
−1

I have been watching this video and at 3:28 it says that a induction is inherently self-starting.Does this happen because of the energy stored and released in the windings of the statorFrom 3:41 until 4:40 it describes how the speed of the rotor oscillates between the speed of the stator and a speed lower than the speed of stator.The slip of a induction motor describes then the average speed of the rotor?

The slip is necessary for the rotor to generate the torque required for rotation. This force also draws more current.
