What is the term for the term potential difference in a charge between two points in a current path?

voltage


What is accuracy and precision and the difference between them?

The term accuracy describes how far your observation/measurement is from the correct result. Precision describes how repeatable your results are, regardless of their accuracy..


What is the difference between potential energy and potential difference?

The term potential energy is applied to the energy a thing or material has because of its nature or position. Things can have potential energy because they are at an elevated point in a gravimetric field. There are types of mechanical potential energy like that held in a spring. Things or materials can also have potential energy because of their chemical, electromagnetic or nuclear characteristics. The term potential difference is applied to compare two things or substances, or points in a system (like an electrical circuit) that are at different potentials. A roller coaster at the top of the "starting grade" will have a greater potential energy (positional energy owing to gravity) than one at the end of its run. A chemical explosive has a higher chemical potential than the chemical components used to make it.

What term describes how hot or cold an object is?


Can we write kerchoff's second law as change in energy is equal to change in potential?

It does not make much difference because potential is the energy utilized to move one coulomb of charge. If energy for moving any amount of charge is considered, then potential term disappears. That is all.

What is the potential voltage?

Unless you are using 'potential' in the general sense (i.e. "What is the possible voltage?"), there is no such engineering term as 'potential voltage'. Voltage is a synonym for 'potential difference', so your expression would then mean "What is the potential potential difference?"Do not mix up 'potential' with 'potential difference' (voltage); they are two different things.
