What is the difference between electrical potential and electromotive force?
electric potential is potential difference between two points in closed circuit. but electromotive force is potential difference in any open circuit.
What is the definition of potential defference?
The difference, measured in volts, in electric potential between two points.
Explain why an electric discharge occurs?
Because there is a potential difference between two objects.
What is electric potential in between twooppositely charged plates?
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.
Clearly distinguish between electric potential energy and electric potential?
Potential difference means the difference in the potentials at two specified points. If "potential" is mentioned without any such qualifier it usually means the potential difference between a point and the "earth" or "grounded terminal". The prefix "electric" is just a reminder we are talking electrically. But the same argument applies equally to gravitational potential.
What is the difference between electrical potential energy and potential difference?
Electric potential is the electric potential energy per unit coulomb. So unit for electric potential is J/C and that of electric potential energy is simply J
How voltmeter works?
It is connected in parallel and measures potential difference.
How is a voltmeter connected in the circuit to measure the potential difference between two points?
The voltmeter is connected in parallel between the two points whose potential difference is required.

How can you measure electric potential and electric current?
Potential . . .Always measured as a potential difference between two points.The most practical way to do that is with a voltemeter connectedin parallel with any circuit between the two points.Electric current . . .The most practical way to measure current is with an ammeter connectedin series in the path of the current.
What is the difference between electrical potential and electromotive force?
electric potential is potential difference between two points in closed circuit. but electromotive force is potential difference in any open circuit.
Why volt meter are attached parallel to the circuit?
Because nothing has to pass through the meter. The voltmeter is only measuring the DIFFERENCE in electric potential between two points.
What is the definition of potential defference?
The difference, measured in volts, in electric potential between two points.
Does an electric field exist outside a parallel plate capacitor?
Electric fields exist everywhere there is an electrical potential difference between one place and another. A simple radio antenna has an alternating electric field from one end of an element to the other.
Why ammeter connects in series and voltmeter in parallel in electric circuit?
Because the ammeter measures the current flowing THROUGH the wire, butthe voltmeter only measures the potential difference between two points.
Explain why an electric discharge occurs?
Because there is a potential difference between two objects.
Why volt meter is always placed in parallel?
Because the quantity it measures is 'EMF' or 'potential difference', that is,the difference in potential between two points. There may be 1 or 1,000circuit components between the two points.
