Answer 1

Potential difference between two points in an electric circuit carrying some current is the work done to move a unit charge from one point to another.

electric potential. n. The work per unit of charge required to move a charge from a reference point to a specified point, measured in joules per coulomb or volts. The static electric field is the negative of the gradient of the electric potential.


SI unit is V (volts)
