I've been reading some of the posts in this board. Quite a few mentioned that when motors stall, they draw much more current and heat up. At some point, I realized i don't really understand why this happens. So long story short, can someone explain the physics behind why motors stall and then draw a lot more current?

I tried searching, but as I said, many posts talk about motors stalling and drawing current, but after skimming just the first page of results, I didn't really find an explanation of the physics behind this.
