A: SURE it can while open it will measure the potential when closed it will measure the small voltage drop due to the resistance if any.

What are the differences between voltage and potential difference?

Voltage is the potential difference to the ground. By convention, ground potential is zero volt.The above answer is incorrect. 'Voltage', by definition, is potential difference. It has nothing to do with being measured with respect to ground -in fact potential difference (voltage) cannot be measured with respect to anything.


What is force measured in volts?

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


What is the potential difference measured in volts?

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


What is contact potential in junction diodes?

The contact potential of a pn-junction diode is signified by the turn-on or barrier voltage, which is the voltage beyond which non-negligible current con be measured flowing in the forward-bias direction. To put it simply, one can run a variable potential difference across a diode in it forward-bias direction until one measures a current. That is the contact potential of the diode. Theoretically, the contact potential is a function of the temperature and doping concentration, and intrinsic hole-electron pair concentrations. However, in the real world, there maybe other factors that will affect the contact potential of a diode.


What units is potential energy measured in?

Potential energy is typically measured in joules (J) in the International System of Units (SI). It can also be measured in electronvolts (eV) in the field of particle physics.


What is water potential measured in?

Water potential is typically measured in units of pressure, such as pascals (Pa) or bars, but can also be reported in kilopascals (kPa) or megapascals (MPa).
