Does the coil in the primary coil of a transformer loses some current when 
it's magnetic field induces current in the secondary coil? I was reading 
about transformers and it said that the magnetic field generated by the 
current transfers energy to the secondary coil. First of all, I was 
wondering what is this energy that is being transfered. And secondly, I 
was wondering if the primary coil loses some electrical energy (current). 

Thank you.
