What do the letters emf stand for?

for "ElectroMotive Force" . . . what we casually call "voltage".


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'.


How are emf measured?

emf in volts


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....


Is voltage used to make current flow?

Yes. Another term for voltage is EMF, electro-motive-force.


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.


Why do you measure emf with a potentiometer not with voltmeter?

EMF (E''electromotive Force'') is another term for Volts, hence the E in electronic formulas and EMF is measured with a volt meter. A potentiometer is not a meter at all, it is a variable resistor


Is earths magnetic field slowly reducing?

Scientists are still struggling on what are the sources of earth's magnetic field (EMF). The facts support the notion that the EMF has reversed its direction several times in earth's history. When the EMF reverses, the EMF intensity will be weakened. Some evidence supports that the EMF intensity is now peaking and is due for a complete reversal in thousands of years. So yes, the EMF will be weakening. What we should worry about is what effects do the sun's activities have upon the EMF in our lifetime. The solar winds can weaken the EMF too. Scientists are predicting major solar activities coming (check the related link). ======================


While discharging which is greater TPD or EMF?
