The word `force` in this case is not used to mean mechanical force, measured in newtons, but a potential, or energy per unit of charge, measured in volts. In electromagnetic induction, emf can be defined around a closed loop as the electromagnetic work that would be transferred to a unit of charge if it travels once around that loop. (While the .....

The electrical potential produced by a chemical reaction. It was abbreviated as EMF.
(EMF) The amount of energy derived from an electrical source per unit quantity of electricity passing through the source.
The amount of energy gained per unit charge that passes through a device in the opposite direction to the electric field produced by that device. Electromotive force (emf) is measured in volts.

(EMF) Type: Term Definitions: 1. the force (measured in volts) that causes the flow of electricity from one point to another.
the amount of energy gained per unit charge that passes through a device in the opposite direction to the electric field existing across that device
Potential causing electricity to flow in a closed circuit.
The difference of potential produced by an electrical source to drive a current through an external electrical circuit. The SI units of electromotive force is the volt. The potential difference between points a and b is:wherefa = potential at point afb = potential at point bE = electric fielddl = line element
emf noun the rate at which energy is drawn from a source that produces a flow of electricity in a circuit; expressed in volts
In physics, the energy supplied by a source of electric power in driving a unit charge around the circuit. The unit is the volt. The term is therefore used to describe the voltage produced by an electric battery or generator in an electrical circuit. A difference in charge between two points in a material can be created when an external energy sour...
The amount of energy derived from an electrical source per unit quantity of electricity passing through the source.
the energy available for conversion from nonelectric to electric form, or vice versa, per unit of charge passing through the source of the energy; the potential difference between the terminals of a source of electrical energy: expressed in volts. Abbr.: emf &hasp;Also called
