Voltage.
When unlike charges are moved farther apart, they gain electrical potential energy. Electrical potential difference is the change in potential energy per coulomb of charge. Voltage is the common name for electrical potential difference and is measured in volts (V). Electrical energy depends on the amount of charge and voltage. Electrochemical cells, or batteries, are a common source of voltage. We use voltmeters to measure potential difference. :)
The name for the potential difference that causes current to flow is voltage.
Another name for gravitational potential energy is potential energy due to gravity.
Another name for the flow of electrical charge is electric current.

'Voltage' is synonymous with, that is, another name for 'potential difference'. When a potential difference is applied across the ends of a conductor, a current will pass along that conductor.Potential difference is a measure of the energy (measured in joules) required to transport electrical charges (measured in coulombs) between two points along a conductor, and is expressed in joules per coulomb which, in the SI system, is given a special name, the volt (symbol: V), named in honour of an Italian physicist, Count Allesandro Volta. So, voltage or potential difference is measured in volts.
The unit of measure is the Volt Potential difference is basically electrical "pressure" (an excess of electrons). Volt.....The unit of electric potential. Named after the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta (1745- 1827). The potential difference is the difference in charge at the poles of a current source The volt (symbol: V) is the SI derived unit of electromotive force, commonly called "voltage". It is also the unit for the related but slightly different quantity electric potential difference (also called "electrostatic potential difference"). ... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volt
Voltage can also be called "potential" and is measured across components or sections of a circuit.Answer'Voltage' is another word for 'potential difference', not'potential'!
Another name for potential difference is voltage.
A 'voltage' is another name for a potential difference. As the name implies, a potential difference exists between two different points or, in the case of an electrical installation, between the line conductor and the neutral conductor. So the neutral does not 'import voltages'. Voltages exist between the line (hot) conductor and the neutral conductor.
electrical wave conducted along the nerve generated by the voltage difference across the cell membrane of the nerve cells.
The name for the potential difference that causes current to flow is voltage.
Voltage, along with electric pressure, electric tension, and electrical potential difference is measured in units of electric potential. This can be joules per coulomb or volts.AnswerFirst of all, there is no such thing as a 'voltage difference'. Voltage is already a 'difference', as it is an alternative name for 'potential difference'! 'Voltage difference', therefore, would mean 'potential difference difference', which makes no sense!The unit for potential and potential difference (voltage) is the volt, which is equivalent to a coulomb per second.
In neuroscience, another name for an action potential is a nerve impulse.
