A square root is a unary operation with some special properties. In the paper, we introduce and study square roots on EMV-algebras. First, the known properties of square roots defined on MV-algebras will be generalized for EMV-algebras, and we also find some new ones for MV-algebras. We use square roots to characterize EMV-algebras. Then, we find a relation between the square root of an EMV-algebra and the square root on its representing EMV-algebra with top element. We show that each strict EMV-algebra has a top element and we investigate the relation between divisible EMV-algebras and EMV-algebras with a special square root. Finally, we present square roots on tribes, EMV-tribes, and we present a complete characterization of any square root on an MV-algebra and on an EMV-algebra by group addition in the corresponding unital ℓ-group.
