Electrical Pressure is AKA
Voltage
Voltage is measured in what?
Volts
Voltage and Currents are what?
Directly Proportional
When one amount increases, another amount increases at the same rate (Side Note)
Directly Proportional
The higher the voltage that is applied to a conductor, the WHAT the voltage that is applied to a conductor, and the WHAT the current will tend to be.
Higher, Higher
In essence, voltage is really the difference between what?
2 Points
