The name for potential difference that causes current to flow is voltage.
The name for the potential difference that causes current to flow is voltage.
Voltage is the measure of electric potential energy per unit charge in an electric circuit. It represents the electrical force or pressure that pushes or drives the electric charges, allowing them to flow through a conductor. Voltage is typically measured in volts (V).
To understand and calculate voltage, you can use Ohm's Law, which states that voltage (V) is equal to the product of current (I) and resistance (R): V = I * R. This equation indicates that an increase in current or resistance will result in a corresponding increase or decrease in voltage, respectively.
