(N/A) Voltage,also known as electric potential difference,is the measure of the energy per unit charge that is required to move a charge between two points in an electric circuit.
It represents the 'pressure' or 'force' that drives electric current through a conductor.
Mathematically,it is defined as $V = \frac{W}{Q}$,where $W$ is the work done and $Q$ is the charge.
The $SI$ unit of voltage is the volt $(V)$.
