We shall introduce now the notation so-called electromotive force.
In the detailed analysis it was shown that the thermal fluctuations within the diode generate an electromotive force that cancels the voltage from rectified current fluctuations.
During 1913 the plant was equipped with electromotive power and was the first in the area to change from steam.
When this happens, the potential difference (p.d.) across the capacitor is equal to the electromotive force (e.m.f.) of the supply.
The electromotive force generated by motion is often referred to as "motional emf".
Each half-cell has an electromotive force (or emf), determined by its ability to drive electric current from the interior to the exterior of the cell.
His main research interests were quantum mechanics, electromotive force, atomic structure, electron emission, unimolecular force, and high vacuum, and he authored several standard science textbooks.
Electrochemical cell voltage is also referred to as electromotive force or emf.
