  • What is Electromotive Force (EMF)? Definition & Explanation
    The electrical force that pushes electrons into motion, thus constituting current flow, is known as electromotive force (EMF).

    Here's why:

    * Electromotive force (EMF) is the energy per unit charge that is provided by a source of electrical energy, such as a battery or generator. This energy is what causes the electrons to move and create an electric current.

    * While it's often referred to as "force," EMF is technically a measure of energy per unit charge (measured in volts). This energy is what drives the flow of charge (electrons).
