Back EMF

PREVIOUS LESSON                                                                                                                               NEXT LESSON

​In a rush?

This video provides a a quick summary - useful for review

Otherwise scroll down.


In the previous set of lessons we discussed the principles in an electric motor, that is a coil of current bearing wire will experience a force in a magnetic field. If in a loop this results in a torque and the motor turns. However the loop of wire is now experiencing a changing flux which should result in induction. This leads to important consideration called back EMF
The motor effect and induction at the same time!
