Apr 12, 2014 at 17:40 | comment | added | Hoytman | Is it correct to say that the magnetic field pulls energy from the current and converts it into energy of motion? | |
Apr 12, 2014 at 17:37 | comment | added | Carl Witthoft | IIRC the motor typically runs "phased" so that current is not at a continuous high level. But when it stalls, it gets "stuck" at the peak current draw point in its cycle. In addition, all the electrical power gets dumped as heat rather than as mechanical power into the system. | |
