प्रश्न
Explain the statement ‘the potential difference between two points is 1 volt’.
Advertisements
उत्तर
One volt is the potential difference between two points in an electric circuit when 1 joule of work is done to move a charge of 1 coulomb from one point to another.
1 volt = `(1 "Joule")/(1 "Coloumb")`
