  2. Electromotive force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electromotive_force

    In a device without internal resistance, if an electric charge passing through that device gains an energy via work, the net emf for that device is the energy gained per unit charge: . Like other measures of energy per charge, emf uses the SI unit volt , which is equivalent to a joule (SI unit of energy) per coulomb (SI unit of charge).

  3. Internal resistance - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Internal_resistance

    When the power source delivers current, the measured voltage output is lower than the no-load voltage; the difference is the voltage drop (the product of current and resistance) caused by the internal resistance. The concept of internal resistance applies to all kinds of electrical sources and is useful for analyzing many types of circuits.

  4. Ohm's law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ohm's_law

    Ohm's law, in the form above, is an extremely useful equation in the field of electrical/electronic engineering because it describes how voltage, current and resistance are interrelated on a "macroscopic" level, that is, commonly, as circuit elements in an electrical circuit.

  5. Motor constants - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Motor_constants

    where is back EMF, is the constant, is the flux, and is the angular velocity. By Lenz's law, a running motor generates a back-EMF proportional to the speed. Once the motor's rotational velocity is such that the back-EMF is equal to the battery voltage (also called DC line voltage), the motor reaches its limit speed.

  6. Counter-electromotive force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counter-electromotive_force

    With a lower overall voltage across the motor's internal resistance as the motor turns faster, the current flowing into the motor decreases. [4] One practical application of this phenomenon is to indirectly measure motor speed and position, as the back-EMF is proportional to the rotational speed of the armature. [5]

  8. Faraday's law of induction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Faraday's_law_of_induction

    The equation of Faraday's law can be derived by the Maxwell–Faraday equation (describing transformer emf) and the Lorentz force (describing motional emf). The integral form of the Maxwell–Faraday equation describes only the transformer emf, while the equation of Faraday's law describes both the transformer emf and the motional emf.

  9. Thévenin's theorem - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thévenin's_theorem

    The resistance is measured after replacing all voltage- and current-sources with their internal resistances. That means an ideal voltage source is replaced with a short circuit, and an ideal current source is replaced with an open circuit. Resistance can then be calculated across the terminals using the formulae for series and parallel circuits ...
