How do you add subscript text within a text string e.g. I would like my the output to have the max as subscript
\text{AC generator emf_max}

To create subscript text mathrm can be used, in relation to the example above; mathrm would be implemented as:
\mathrm{AC ~ generator ~ emf}_\mathrm{max}
(with use of ~ as a space as mathrm does not support native spaces.
\documentclassand the appropriate packages so that those trying to help don't have to recreate it. While solving problems can be fun, setting them up is not. Then, those trying to help can simply cut and paste your MWE and get started on solving the problem. – Peter Grill Dec 05 '18 at 07:46$\text{AC generator } \mathrm{emf}_\mathrm{max}$. I assumed you were already in math mode as you are using\text{}. – Peter Grill Dec 05 '18 at 07:48\text{AC generator }emf_{\max}– Zarko Dec 05 '18 at 07:54mathrm{}for consistency.
