strations the pressure was assumed to be main-tained constant at point A. Consider now a battery ordynamo D, Fig. 207, with an internal resistance (r) of 4 ohmsconnected to one lamp at B, 10 feet distant from A. Thevoltmeter at A indicates 60 volts as before, and with oneampere flowing through the… … 207.—E, M. F. and Potential Difference in an Electric Circuit, Formula (29). The total pressure or E. M. F. is, therefore,4: -{- 10 -\- 50 or 64 volts. The voltmeter across the generatorterminals, however, indicates the potential, difference or thatportion of the E. M. F. available in the external…
