Electromotive

Examples

• We learned in Section 287 that the strength of a current increases when the electromotive force increases, and diminishes when the electromotive force diminishes. Bertha M. Clark. General Science.
• When the cell consists of copper, zinc, and dilute sulphuric acid, the electromotive force has a definite value which is always the same no matter what the size or shape of the cell. Bertha M. Clark. General Science.
• Each combination of material has its own specific electromotive force. Bertha M. Clark. General Science.
• The electromotive force of one cell may not give a current strong enough to ring a door bell or to operate a telephone. Bertha M. Clark. General Science.
• The strength of a steady current depends upon these two factors only, the electromotive force which causes it and the resistance which it has to overcome. Bertha M. Clark. General Science.
• There was nothing I could find bearing upon the counter electromotive force of the armature, and the effect of the resistance of the armature on the work given out by the armature. Frank Lewis Dyer. Edison, His Life and Inventions.
• The unit of electromotive force is called the _volt_. Bertha M. Clark. General Science.
