The main reason for using ac is safety.

ac as more safe than the dc as it passes through zero in every half cycle.

There are many other reasons like,

ac can be transmitted for longer distances efficiently

we can use the Induction motor.

What is EMF used for?

assuming you mean electromotive force: emf is the main principle behind power transformers. emf also comes in the form of radio waves, which are used for radio transmission (obviously)


What is the pressure behind the electron called?

Believe it is called EMF, Electrical Motive Force.


How does the EMF of a battery which is made up of cells in series compare with the EMF of the individual cell?

The EMF of a battery made up of cells in series is equal to the sum of the EMFs of the individual cells. When cells are connected in series, their voltages add up. For example, if you have two 1.5V cells in series, the total EMF of the battery would be 3V.


How do you determine the emf and internal resistance of a cell?

You can measure the emf of a cell by using a voltmeter, as this draws current from a cell. You can use the voltage, the emf, and the load resistance to determine the internal resistance of the cell.


How do you increase the rate of Electrolysis?

By using a power supply of greater emf.


What is the difference between a DC motor and a generator in terms of EMF?

During the operation of a DC motor, EMF is created across its terminals using an external source. Whereas, in a DC generator EMF is created across its terminal based on principle of dynamically induced EMF. So talking in terms of EMF, in DC motor EMF is consumed by the motor coil and utilized to rotate the axle. On the other hand, in DC generator EMF developed across coil is transfered to a load or a battery and consumed by them.


How are emf measured?

Why emf of battery driving potentiometer is greater than emf of the cell to be measured?

Bcoz the emf which is to be measured is less than emf of driving cell....


Does motional emf call induced emf?

yes indused emf is also called motional emf. If an open coil is subjected to a variable magnetic field, at the ends of the coil a potential difference is induced which is called induced emf. If a coil is connected to an emf source and switched on, the rising current will produced an variable magnetic field which in turn produces an emf. It is called back emf.
