16.2 Electromotive Force and Potential Difference
Electromotive force (e.m.f.) and potential difference (p.d.) are two important concepts, both measured in volts (V). One volt is defined as one joule of energy per coulomb of charge:
1 V = 1 J C⁻¹
E.m.f., potential difference, voltmeters, and combination of sources.
