The correct Answer is:
To find the unit of electromotive force (emf), we can start by recalling the relationship between emf and other physical quantities. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understand the Definition of EMF**: Electromotive force (emf) is defined as the energy provided per unit charge by a source of electrical energy. 2. **Use the Formula**: The formula that relates emf (E) to inductance (L) and the rate of change of current (di/dt) is given by: \[ E = L \frac{di}{dt} \] 3. **Identify the Units**: - The unit of inductance (L) is Henry (H). - The unit of current (I) is Ampere (A). - The unit of time (t) is second (s). 4. **Substituting Units into the Formula**: Now, substituting the units into the formula: \[ \text{Unit of } E = \text{Unit of } L \times \text{Unit of } \left(\frac{di}{dt}\right) \] This gives us: \[ \text{Unit of } E = \text{Henry} \times \left(\frac{\text{Ampere}}{\text{Second}}\right) \] 5. **Simplifying the Units**: Therefore, we can express the unit of emf as: \[ \text{Unit of } E = \text{Henry} \cdot \frac{\text{Ampere}}{\text{Second}} = \text{Henry Ampere per Second} \] 6. **Conclusion**: Thus, the unit of electromotive force (emf) is Henry Ampere per Second. ### Final Answer: The unit of emf is **Henry Ampere per Second**. ---
