Discuss brief of volts and potential?

The potential difference of 120 volts and 12 volts is 108 volts.

'Force' isn't measured in volts. Potential and potential difference are measured in volts.

Electrical potential is measured in Volts. Electrical potential is measured in Volts.

The volt is the derived unit for electric potential, electric potential difference, and electromotive force.unit of volts is V.

See discuss.

On three phase 208 volts one leg does not have the potential of 208 volts. It takes two legs to provide the 208 volts. The potential is across AB, BC and CA. Voltage to the grounded neutral A-N, B-N and C-N will produce a potential of 120 volts. In a wye configured secondary three phase four wire you have the potential of 120/208 volts.

Volts are a measure of electric potential difference.

In electricity a potential difference is measured in volts.

Potential Difference is measured in Volts

Watts are volts multiplied by current while volts are the electrical potential difference.

Volts. Volts is another term for potential.

It takes a potential of about 20,000 volts to see of feel. The human body can accumulate a potential of about 25,000 volts or more.

Electric potential.

Volts represents difference of potential and nanometers are distance. There is no coorelation.

Alessandro volta Answer No-one 'invented' volts. The name 'volt' was adopted by an international committee as the unit for potential and potential difference in honour of Allessadro Volta!

Lithium has the highest negative potential of -3.045 volts

There is some equipment that will operate on 208 volts even though it is rated to be use 240 volts. See discuss question below.

measure potential differences in volts

Volts is the unit to measure the potential difference between any two points in an electrical circuit. Without Potential Difference there cant be any flow of current.

The potential for someone to come along later on and get the wires mixed up causing damage to electrical appliances or lights.

The electric potential difference is measured in volts. The amount of volts will depend on what kind of plates and the solution which the plates have been put in to.

use a potential divider with R2 and R1 being 100 ohms

In North America the potential at a receptacle for appliances is 120 volts.

The difference, measured in volts, in electric potential between two points.

If you are talking about electrical potential, that would be "volts".

A Brief History Of Foodservice

100 million volts

== When we make a semiconductor junction (a p-n junction), the electric fields force charges to shift creating what is called a depletion region. This depletion region forms a potential barrier across the junction. This potential barrier has a voltage associated with it, and that voltage is 0.3 volts (approximately) for germanium semiconductor material, and 0.7 volts (approximately) for silicon semiconductor. The terms we apply to this barrier potential are the built-in voltage (or potential)… Read More

By general agreement, it is conventional to think of ground, or earth, as being at zero volts.

action potential

Assuming there are no other circuit elements, such as resistances, then (by Kirchoff's Laws) the voltage across the bulb will also be 6 volts.

Volts represents potential and amps is the flow of electrons. The relationship is by Ohm's Law which says Volts = Amps x Resistance.

Potential (difference) is measured in volts. Difference in height is measured in inches, or cm if you like metric.

The difference between 3.6 to 3.7 volts is .1 volt of higher potential.

Voltage is a potential difference, which may be measured in volts, the volt being a unit of measure.

Volts Per Meter

Potential or Electromotive Force (EMF).

Potential difference is measured in Volts (shown as (V) or sometimes (E))

Volts are in SI electric potential difference, electromotive force voltVW/Am2·kg·s-3·A-1

The question is not relevant. 240 volts refers to the "potential", and amps refers to the current. Potential * current = watts, or energy. You can have 240 volts at 1 amp, which will result in 240 watts, or you can have 240 amps at 1 volt which would also result in 240 watts.

no coomments

Voltage is another name for potential difference. The potential in question is the potential of the electric field, and the E-field is the gradient of this potential and is measured in volts per metre.

Volts are a unit of measurement for the potential difference between two points. Amps are a unit for measuring the current flowing between those two points. Potential difference is just a condition for a current to flow.

electric potential energy is the energy a charged particle holds, which is measured in joules. electric potential is the potential a charged particle has, such as 4 volts.

Volt. As in "the voltage is 2 volts"

Potential is measured in volts. The potential at any point is always measured with respect to another point, such as (but not necessarily) earth. So, if the potential at point A measures, say, +12 V with respect to earth, and the potential at point B measures, say, -12 V with respect to earth, then the potential difference between points A and B is +12 V - (-12 V), or 24 volts.

A Volt meter is used to measure potential difference (a.k.a. voltage). Potential difference is measured in units called: Volts (V).

Power (in watts) = Volts * Amps Therefore: 3 Amps * 24 Volts = 72 watts

The potential difference in electricity is the Electromagnetic Force, in Volts, measured across the two wires that make the circuit.

international system unit (Si) for electric potential is "VOLTS". it is given in honor of scientist volt
