Solution

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 volts(V).
  3. 1volt 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:

V=IR

Here,

V is the voltage measured in volts.

I is the current measured in amperes.

R is the resistance measured in ohms.

Therefore, option B is correct.
