Voltától

Voltától is a term that refers to a unit of electrical potential difference, commonly known as voltage. Specifically, it is a non-standard abbreviation for "volt." The volt is the SI derived unit for electric potential, electric potential difference, and electromotive force. It is defined as the electric potential difference between two points of a conductor when an electric current of one ampere dissipates one watt of power between those points. The unit is named after the Italian physicist Alessandro Volta. While "volt" is the universally accepted and standard unit, "voltától" might be encountered in informal contexts or older technical literature. Its usage is not recommended in formal scientific or engineering writing. Understanding the concept of voltage is fundamental to comprehending electrical circuits and the flow of electric current. It represents the "pressure" that drives electrons through a conductor.
