What is the Unit of Potential Difference?

Answer: The quantity of energy per unit charge at a certain position is known as electric potential. When a coulomb charge has a lot of potential energy, it means the point has a lot of electric potential. Similarly, if the potential energy of a coulomb charge at a place is low, that point has a lower electric potential. The electrical potential difference is the difference in electric potential between two places.

Volts are the SI unit of voltage and are symbolised by the letter v. One volt is equal to one joule of energy consumed for one coulomb of electric charge.
