Careful measurement of emf and or internal resistance of a cell Aim To measure voltage and current in the circuit and from that figure work out emf and internal resistance of the cell‚ to identify errors involved and deal with them in the most effective way and maintain a safe working environment at all times. Background EMF (electromotive force) is a measure of work done per unit of charge and is measured in volts. Internal resistance is resistance in ohms of the cell. I will be using a 1.5V battery
