Electrical force actually acts on electrical charges.
Electrical potential refers to the electric potential energy per unit charge at a point in an electric field, measured in volts. Electromotive force (emf) is the energy per unit charge supplied by a source of electrical energy, such as a battery, to drive current through a circuit, also measured in volts. Essentially, electrical potential is a property of a point in the field, while emf is the force that drives the flow of charge.
An example of a non-contact force of an electrical charge is the force of attraction or repulsion between two charged particles that are not touching each other, such as the force between two charged balloons held close to each other.
The electrical unit of potential difference is the volt, represented by the symbol V. It is a measure of the force that pushes electric charge through a circuit.
Voltage is created in an electrical circuit through the movement of electrons from a higher potential to a lower potential, which generates a difference in electrical charge. This difference in charge, known as voltage, creates the force that drives the flow of electricity through the circuit.
No, there is no electrical force between two neutrons because they both have no net charge (neutral). Electrical forces only act between charged particles. However, neutrons can interact with each other through the strong nuclear force due to the presence of quarks within them.

Electrical current is the number of elementary charge units (coulombs) that pass by a given point in one second. Current, measured in amperes, is coulombs per second. Electrical voltage is the "pressure" behind that current. Voltage, measured in volts, is joules per coulomb.
The electrical unit of potential difference is the volt, represented by the symbol V. It is a measure of the force that pushes electric charge through a circuit.
Voltage is created in an electrical circuit through the movement of electrons from a higher potential to a lower potential, which generates a difference in electrical charge. This difference in charge, known as voltage, creates the force that drives the flow of electricity through the circuit.
Positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons have equal but opposite charges.
No, there is no electrical force between two neutrons because they both have no net charge (neutral). Electrical forces only act between charged particles. However, neutrons can interact with each other through the strong nuclear force due to the presence of quarks within them.
-- Electrical force only cares about the charge on two objects, and ignores their mass. Gravitational force only cares about the mass of two objects, and ignores their charge. -- Electrical force can be attractive or repulsive. Gravitational force can only be attractive.
Objects with the same electrical charge repel each other due to the electrostatic force. This force is caused by the interaction of the electric fields surrounding the charged objects, causing them to push away from each other.
Electric force is the attractive or repulsive force between two charged particles. The potential difference between two points can be measured with a Voltmeter.
Electrical forces are inversely proportional to the square of the distance separating the charges.
Voltage and potential difference are essentially the same thing in an electrical circuit. Voltage is the measure of potential difference between two points in a circuit. In other words, voltage is the force that pushes electric charges through a circuit, and potential difference is the measure of this force.
