14. Why back emf used for a dc motor? highlight its
significance.
The induced emf developed when the
rotating conductors of
the armature
between the poles of magnet, in a DC
motor,
cut the magnetic flux,
opposes the
current flowing
through the conductor,
when
the armature rotates, is
called back
emf. Its value depends upon
the speed of
rotation of the armature conductors. In
starting, the value of back emf is zero.
