The discussion clarifies the concept of reverse electromagnetic force, commonly referred to as "back EMF," particularly in the context of transformers. When an AC voltage is applied to the primary coil of a transformer, it generates an AC current that creates a magnetic flux. This magnetic flux induces a current in the secondary coil, which in turn generates a flux that opposes the primary flux, resulting in a reduction of input impedance in the primary due to the reflected load impedance. This phenomenon is essential for understanding transformer operation.
