Because emf is the very source of voltage, either chemical or inductive, an can be meassured at open circuit only so, internal resistance of the supplier is not affecting it.

What does the size of the current depend on?

A: The EMF and total resistance


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.


What does the size of a current depend upon?

One way to determine current is to measure it, with an ammeter. Another way is to calculate it using Ohm's law: current = voltage / resistance.


Why magnet is used for making standard resistance coil?

magnet produce emf it maintain the resistance as same


How does voltage drop related to impressed emf?

Voltage drop is resultant of IR ie current and the line resistance, not dependent on impressed emf


Does current depends on its resistance?

The current flow in an electrical circuit depends on the applied electromotive force (EMF, measured in volts), and the total resistance along the entire circuit. Rising EMF or dropping resistance cause increased current flow


Does the induced emf in a circuit depend on the resistence of the circuit?

No. But the current through it does.


The expression that relates emf potential current and resistance is Ohm's law?

Yes, that is what it is called.


What is the difference between the emf of a battery and the lost volts when discharging called?

Internal resistance


Does resistance depend upon current?

The higher the resistance the lower the current flow. It restricts the flow of electrical current. The resistance will not depend upon the current. The current flow will depend on the resistance.


How do you find voltage when amps is known?

You don't. If you know how many Amperes in an electrical circuit and also what the total resistance in the circuit is, then EMF (Volts) = current (Amps) x resistance (in Ohms). EMF stands for Electromotive Force, and its unit of measure is the Volt.


What happens to the generated voltage of a self excited generator if shunt field resistance is greater than the critical resistance?
