POTENTIAL AND POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE

Expand EDUCATION

• If the charge starts moving in the conductor then electricity flows in the conductor, but how electrons flow? 
• Electrons flow in the conductor due to potential differences.
• Potential difference is the difference of electric potential of two points.
• What is electric potential?
• The work done in carrying a unit charge from infinity to a point inside the electric field is known as the potential of that point.
• The S.I unit of potential and potential difference is volt.
• It is denoted by V.
• V = W/Q
• here v is the potential difference, 
•         W is work done
•          Q is charge.
