Question

Electrical Pressure is also called?

• A. Current
• B. Voltage
• C. Resistance
• D. Power

Answer 1

The correct option is B

Voltage

Electrical pressure:

1. The difference in electric potential between the two points is called electrical pressure is also known as voltage.
2. The unit of electrical pressure is $\mathrm{volts}\left(\mathrm{V}\right)$.
3. $1\mathrm{volt}$ is the amount of pressure required to flow one ampere of electricity through one ohm of resistance.

Voltage:

The difference in the electric potential between the two points is known as voltage. It is the effort expended in transporting a charge from one pole to another via a wire.

Mathematically, it is represented as:

$\mathrm{V}=\mathrm{IR}$

Here,

V is the voltage measured in $\mathrm{volts}$.

I is the current measured in $\mathrm{amperes}$.

R is the resistance measured in $\mathrm{ohms}$.

Therefore, option B is correct.
