Open circuit emf of a cell?

ELECTROMOTIVE MAGNETIC FORCE emf measured as volts . It does not guarantees a current or power but just the force is present. With a load it may disappear


What emf stands for?

Electromagnetic field (induces around the metal when current flows through it). Another opinion: Nope ! 'EMF' stands for 'Electromotive Force' . We refer to it casually as 'voltage'.


What is the driving force that causes current to flow and what is it measured in?

Type your answer here... volts


Why the unit of potential difference and electromotive force is the same?

Because an electromotive force is a potential difference (voltage) -specifically, an electromotive force is the open-circuit or no-load potential difference of a source such as a battery or generator.


What is more watts or volts?

Watts is the product of amps and volts. It's amps times volts. The watt (W) is a measure of power (P). It's the SI unit of power, actually, and it's a joule per second. The volt is a measure of electrical potential difference, and is the SI (derived) unit of electromotive force, or EMF (E). Voltage, which is measured in volts (V), is the force that drives electron current flow (I), which is measured in amps (A). In relationship to the volt, the watt is current flow times voltage, or, said another way, a watt is amps times volts. As regards watts and volts, they are "linked" by current. Let's look at the expressions: Power = Current x Electromotive force => P = I x E Power (in watts) = Current (in amps) x Electromotive force (in volts)Voltage is a measure of electric potential, in joules per coulomb. Watts is a measure of energy transfer rate, in joules per second.To complete the answer, amperes is a measure of charge transfer rate, in coulombs per second, which is why voltage (joules per coulomb) time amperes (coulombs per second) is watts (joules per second).

Is electromotive force a scalar quantity?

No, electromotive force (emf) is not a scalar quantity. It is a vector quantity that represents the driving force that pushes charges through a circuit. It has both magnitude and direction, and is measured in volts.


What is force measured in volts?
