The word Volta has two meanings: Volta is the name of river (River Volta) in Ghana and Volta is also a name of a famous Italian physicist who invented one of the parameters of measuring electric current, Volt and an equipment to measure electric current called Voltmeter. In both the cases, the word Volta is a noun (Proper noun).
No, the Volta River in Ghana is not named after Alessandro Volta, the Italian physicist known for his work in electricity. The name "Volta" is derived from the Portuguese word "volta," meaning "bend" or "turn," which likely refers to the river's winding shape. The river was named during the colonial period, reflecting the influence of Portuguese exploration in the region.
