What is difference between e.m.f. and terminal voltage

Answer» ELECTROMOTIVE Force (emf) is the energy (work) given by an electric cell to flow a unit charge in the whole circuit (containing cell).

Terminal Voltage is the work DONE by an electric cell to flow a unit charge between TWO POINTS of a circuit.

So, difference between EMF and Terminal Voltage is that EMF is measured for whole circuit WHEREAS Terminal Voltage is measured for two points of a circuit.


We can say that all the Terminal Voltages of a cell form a EMF.

Thus, E = V1 + V2 + V3 + V4 +..........+ Vn.
