An electric motor in a hair dryer is running at its normal constant operating speed and, thus, is drawing a relatively small current, as in part (b) of Example 12. The wire in the coil of the motor has some resistance. What happens to the temperature of the coil if the shaft of the motor is prevented from turning, so that the back emf is suddenly reduced to zero?

The temperature of the coil will increase (over heating will occur)

Explanation:

This overheating generally occurs when the motor is overloaded, when a bearing seizes up, when something locks the motor shaft and prevents it from turning, or when the motor simply fails to start properly.

Back emf is zero when the motor is not turning, and it increases proportionally to the motor's angular velocity. As the motor turns faster and faster, the back emf grows, always opposing the driving emf, and reduces the voltage across the coil and the amount of current it draws.
