Yes, voltage is a kind of electric pressure. It is also called potential. When there is potential difference between any two points, current starts flowing from high pressure point to low pressure point.

FOR EXAMPLE : When there is a difference in air pressure between two regions, air moves from region of low pressure to region of high pressure causing winds

In this case air is the potential and wind is electric current

What force keep current flowing?

Voltage is the pressure that moves the electrons (current) through a circuit.


Does the voltage increase when current moves through the circuit?

If a buck boost converter is a part of the circuit, then it is possible.


What are ways magnets can produce electricity?

If a conductor moves in a magnetic field, a voltage will be induced. This can be tapped to get an electrical current.


What is the name of the pressure that moves electrons in a closed circuit?

The pressure that moves electrons in a closed circuit is called voltage. Voltage creates an electric field that pushes the electrons through the circuit, allowing them to flow from the higher potential to the lower potential.


If voltage changes in a ac circuit what happens to current?

Voltage attempts to make a current flow, and current will flow if the circuit is complete. It is possible to have voltage without current, but current cannot flow without voltage. The answer is "yes",voltage remains the same as current moves through the circuit.As the voltage remains constant, current increases in the circuit.


What is the particle that moves in the electric current?

The particle that moves in an electric current is an electron. Electrons are negatively charged subatomic particles that flow through conductive materials, like metals, when a voltage is applied.


What is The pushing force that moves through a circuit is called?

The pushing force that moves through a circuit is called voltage. It is the potential difference between two points in the circuit that causes the charge to flow.
