    I have been confused with voltage and potential energy since the start of the semester, I had read books, watched a lot of videos and tried to pay attention in class but nothing had really helped until I watched this video. Thank you so much!

      Dude I still could not understand how potential difference is needed to have a continuous flow of current because it is about TRANSFER OF ENERGY AND how is that connected to a continuous file of current?

    I think the direction of the flow of electrons is wrong here cause electrons would always flow from negative terminal to positive terminal and current flows in the direction opposite to the flow of electrons. Any one correct me if I am wrong.

That's why when you connect a circuit without a load it loses some potential energy not all but some and it regain the energy through the battery

    Sir,in the example with potential difference of 1.5 V, what if there was no bulb, then positive charges will still keep on flowing from positive side to negative(i.e:electrons will keep on moving from negative to positive side of battery).But there wouldn't be any resistance as per our assumption, so no heat will be generated.Then will it still do 1.5 J work/coloumb?

  • @qualquan
    @qualquan 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Using his analogy one could have been more succinct.
    If mgh represents gravitational potential energy (PE), Voltage is analogous to the "gh" bit or gravitational acceleration x height in the direction of acceleration. In electricity gravitational acceleration is represented by electric field E (which also is acceleration) and height by d (displacement) along the E direction. Just as multiplying gh by mass = mgh (gravitational potential energy) so multiplying Ed by q = qEd = electrical potential energy. The "Ed" bit is also called Voltage or EMF. Thats it in a paragraph
    Recapping, gh is analogous to Ed or Voltage or EMF or "POTENTIAL". Multiplying with q gives Potential Energy (PE)

    Since energy can neither be created nor destroyed ,what about the kinetic energy of positive charge .Are we neglecting it against heat loss?
