Voltage

Voltage is the electrical potential difference between two points in a circuit. It is measured in volts and is the driving force behind the flow of electric current.

Voltage

Voltage is a measure of the potential difference between two points in an electrical circuit. It is the force that causes electrons to flow through a circuit, and is measured in volts (V). Voltage is the electrical equivalent of pressure in a hydraulic system.

Voltage is created by a power source, such as a battery or generator, and is measured by a voltmeter. The voltage of a power source is determined by the amount of energy it can provide to the circuit. The higher the voltage, the more energy is available to the circuit.

Voltage is also used to measure the potential difference between two points in a circuit. This potential difference is the difference in electrical potential energy between two points in a circuit. The higher the voltage, the greater the potential difference between the two points.

Voltage is also used to measure the amount of current flowing through a circuit. Current is the rate at which electrons flow through a circuit, and is measured in amperes (A). The higher the voltage, the greater the current that can flow through the circuit.

Voltage is an important concept in electrical engineering, as it is used to measure the potential difference between two points in a circuit, the amount of energy available to the circuit, and the amount of current flowing through the circuit. It is also used to measure the power of a circuit, which is the rate at which energy is transferred from one point to another.
