because voltage is the 'electrical potential difference'. since a "difference" can only be evaluated between two points so is voltage :)

The distance between 2 point is called?

It is simply called the distance between the two points - simple as that. How that distance is measured will depend on the nature of the surface on which the two points are located as well as on the metric for measuring distance that is defined on that space.The common metric in Euclidean space is the Pythagorean distance while on the surface of a sphere (like the Earth, for example), distances are measured along the great arc.


What is the line voltage between two lines?

the voltage between 1 line & phase =120v The voltage between 2 line =240


The amount of space between 2 points is measured in units of what?

The amount of space between two points is measured in units of distance. Common units of distance include meters, kilometers, feet, and miles, depending on the measurement system used. In geometry, the distance can also be calculated using formulas like the Euclidean distance in a Cartesian coordinate system.


What is between 2 points?

A line segment is between two end points


Definition of linear dimension?

For example, on a number line (which is one dimensional object), we measure the distance of two points in units. For example, the distance between 2 and 4 is 2 units. Any nth side of a polygon, can be measured by using linear units, such as cm, in., ft, km, etc. The circumference of a circle, the length of an arc, also are measured by linear units. A unit that is used to measure the distance between two points, is called linear dimension.

What is the total voltage of 2 1.5 voltage cells where the minus is facing the minus?

1.5V if measured across the + and - terminals, otherwise 0V. When measured at points with identical potential (voltage), there is no difference between voltage levels and no current flows.


What does voltage mean in science?

In science, voltage is a measure of the electric potential difference between two points in a circuit. It represents the force that drives an electric current to flow from one point to another. Voltage is measured in volts (V).


What is the potential difference between 2 points in a circuit called?

What you measure voltage into?

You measure voltage using a voltmeter which involves measuring the electrical potential difference between 2 points in an electrical circuit.


What is called an angle?

1).angle is nothing but the deviation among two points. when two points are lie on a same line those two points are said to be collinear.that means the angle between them is 180 because they lie along a line. so according to the deviation between the points the angle is measured. 2).the angles are measured in degrees.


What move does the denominator of the slope describe?

What happens to the voltage as the number of flowing electrons increases?

Voltage is the potential difference between two points. It is commonly measured by a voltmeter with 2 probes, each one touching the two points. Flowing electrons do not depend on voltage. They depend on the voltage difference between two points. Same as saying a ball does not run along a road merely if the road is at high altitude. Only if the altitude is falling along the road will the ball run in that direction. And the steeper the road, the faster it goes. The currents that flow in a wire is not directly caused by increases in the number of electrons (in a metal, the concentration of electrons is constant at all normal voltages and doesn't vary with current) but how rapidly the voltage changes as you go along the wire ("the electric field", measured in volts per cm). If you force in more flowing electrons from a source connected to it, the volts per cm increases so that the current carries away the supplied flow.

What is the volts per phase on a 480 3 phase system?

The (ideal) voltage is 480V line to line. The line to neutral voltage (if it is a grounded system - 4 wires) is 480 / 1.732 = 277 volts. The actual measured voltage may be slightly higher or lower than this.
