Description

Voltage

Voltage is the measure of the electric potential difference between two points in a circuit. It’s what pushes electric charges through wires, like pressure pushing water through a pipe. Without voltage, electric current wouldn’t flow. Voltage is produced by energy sources like batteries ...

Transcript

Imagine water flowing downhill. The greater the height difference, the stronger the flow. Voltage works in a similar way.

Voltage is the electric potential difference between two points, and it is measured in volts...
