Calculate Terminal Voltage





Formula

The formula to calculate the Terminal Voltage is:

\[ \text{Vt} = \text{emf} - I \times R \]

Where:

What is Terminal Voltage?

Terminal Voltage is the voltage output of a device measured across its terminals. It is calculated by subtracting the product of the current and the resistance from the total emf.

Example Calculation

Let's assume the following values:

Using the formula to calculate the Terminal Voltage (Vt):

\[ \text{Vt} = 12 - (2 \times 1) = 12 - 2 = 10 \text{ volts} \]

The Terminal Voltage is 10 volts.
