OMG I am literally jumping for joy! (nerd). Why don't lecturers and teachers explain it this way? Or maybe I'm just a dunce...

It helped, but I'm having problems interpreting Voltage as a force along with its formal definition. If voltage is difference in potential difference, isn't it analogous with a rock being lifted 10 feet higher, and force wouldn't have changed (as in a gravitational field, g=ma, m=mass object...

Oh i was confused about that. But can you explain why current is a function of voltage and load? Why does current increase as voltage increase in physical terms? Is voltage the "kinetic energy" of each charge which means it travels faster through the load? :/

I get that part now, thanks. But why does voltage increase current for a given load?

Hi guys, I'm new to this forum and am not sure where I would ask this question so sorry if it's out of place :/ But I want to know what voltage is exactly. I've asked lecturers, friends and i don't get it! I know that its measured in J/C, and that its the difference in potential energy...
