This document defines electric potential and potential difference. It states that electrons only move through a conductor when there is a difference in electric potential, known as potential difference. Potential difference is defined as the work required to move a single unit of positive charge between two points without producing any acceleration, and is measured in volts. The voltmeter is used to measure potential difference by connecting it in parallel across two points, and works done moving a charge is calculated by multiplying the potential difference in volts by the charge in coulombs.
