Example sentences for "electromotive force"

  • The current from the cell Ba as it flows through DGE, undergoes a fall in potential, setting up a difference in voltage, that is, an electromotive force, between D and E.

  • There will also be electromotive force between D and all other points on the slide wire.

  • Joubert, as far back as 1881, noticed the deformation which the alternating-current arc impresses upon the electromotive force curve of an alternator, giving an open circuit a simple harmonic variation of electromotive force.

  • To produce discharges in tubes devoid of electrodes was, however, not easy to accomplish, for the only available means of producing an electromotive force in the discharge circuit was by electro-magnetic induction.

  • In transformers of the ordinary type it will be found that the wave of electromotive force of the secondary very nearly coincides with that of the primary, being, however, in opposite sign.

  • An ampere is an electromotive force of one volt through a resistance of one ohm.

  • The pressure of an electric current; the unit of electromotive force.

  • The unit of electromotive force is the volt, and this is the electric pressure which will force a current of 1 ampere through a resistance of 1 ohm; it is expressed by the symbol E.

  • This condition causes a serious defect in the action of ring armatures rendering the winding around the interior useless for the production of electromotive force.

  • Because the motor, on account of its rotation acts as a dynamo and thus tends to set up in the circuit a reverse electromotive force, that is, an electromotive force in opposite direction to the current which is driving the motor.

  • Since the lines follow the metal of the ring instead of penetrating the interior, no electromotive force is induced in that portion of the winding lying on the interior surface of the ring.

  • It has been stated that a galvanic cell has the power to charge one of its plates positively and the other negatively; this power is called electromotive force, and, for short, E.

  • The unit of electrical pressure or electromotive force is called the volt, and takes its name from Volta, the great founder of the science of galvanic or voltaic electricity.

  • Electromotive force is another name for pressure; the symbol for which is E.

  • The volt is the unit of pressure or electromotive force.

  • Magnesium in particular, also zinc and cadmium, were greatly depressed in electromotive force in electrolytes by elevation of temperature.

  • The usual effect of increasing the strength of the liquid upon the volta-electromotive force was to considerably increase it, but its effect upon the thermo-electro-motive force was to largely decrease it.
