Volt (V) electrical unit - RapidTables.com
WEBVolt is the electrical unit of voltage or potential difference (symbol: V). One Volt is defined as energy consumption of one joule per electric charge of one coulomb.
Voltage - Wikipedia
WEBIn the International System of Units (SI), the derived unit for voltage is the volt (V). The voltage between points can be caused by the build-up of electric charge (e.g., a capacitor), and from an electromotive force (e.g., electromagnetic induction in a generator).
VOLT Definition & Meaning | Dictionary.com
WEBThe unit of electromotive force, the volt measures how much “pressure” there is in an electric circuit. The higher the voltage, the more electrical current (see also current) will flow in the circuit.
