Abstract
A washing apparatus including an AC motor configured to generate a rotating force, a clutch unit configured to selectively transmit the rotating force to a rotating tub and a pulsator, a speed detector configured to detect a rotating speed of at least one of the AC motor and the clutch unit, and a controller configured to repeat power supply and power cut-off to the AC motor according to the rotating speed. The washing apparatus can control the power supply and power cut-off to the AC motor based on the rotating speed.
