Back EMF
,→About Back emf
*[[Back EMF|Back emf]] occurs due to [[Lenz's Law|Lenz's Law]], which states that the direction of the [[Electromagnetic *Induction|induced]] [[Electromotive Force|emf]] is such that it opposes the change causing it.
*In an [[Motor|electric motor]], [[Back EMF|back emf]] increases with the [[speed]] of the [[motor]].
*It [[Back EMF|Back emf]] limits the current flowing through the [motor ]] as the [[speed]] increases.
*In [[Electrical Transformer|transformers]], [[Back EMF|back emf]] is [[Electromagnetic *Induction|induced]] in the [[Primary Coil|primary coil]] when the [[Electrical Current|current]] in the [[Secondary Coil|secondary coil]] changes.
*[[Back EMF|Back emf]] is crucial for the functioning of devices like [[motor]]s and [[Electrical Transformer|transformers]] by preventing excessive currents.
*It [[Back EMF|Back emf]] is a key factor in the design and operation of [[Alternating Current|AC]] and [[D.C. Motor|DC motors]].
