Question

The electric ___________ between two points in an electric circuit carrying some current is the work done to move a unit charge from one point to the other.

A.

resistance

B.

charge

C.

potential difference

D.

current

Correct option is C


The electric potential difference (or voltage) between two points in a circuit is defined as the work done per unit charge to move the charge from one point to the other. Mathematically, it is expressed as:
V = W/Q
Where:
· V = Potential difference (volts)
· W = Work done (joules)
· Q = Charge moved (coulombs)

Resistance
The Measure of the opposition to current flow in an electrical circuit.
The SI unit of electrical resistance is the ohm ( Ω ).
Named after Georg Simon Ohm (1784-1854), a
German physicist who studied the relationship between voltage, current, and resistance.
Charge
Electric charge is the physical property of matter that causes it to experience a force when placed in an electromagnetic field.
Common symbols: Q.
SI unit: Coulomb.
Current
Current is the flow of electrical charge carriers like electrons.
Current flows from negative to positive points.
Sl unit: Ampere (A).
