PD, emf & S.I base units Flashcards
1
Q
What is emf
A
- Electromotive force is the energy on the charge carriers, provided by the cell or battery, transferring any other forms of energy into electrical.
- So that then as the charge carries move through the circuit, the electrical energy is transferred into other forms.

Q
What is PD?
A
The energy transferred by the charge carries to the components, transferring electrical energy into other forms of energy
2
Q
define the volt
A
One volt is the potential difference across a component when 1J of energy is transferred per unit of charge passing through the component. 1V is 1J of energy transferred per coulomb of charge.

A
Time - s
Length - m
Mass - kg
Current - A
Temperature - K
Amount - mol
Luminous intensity - candela
