The easiest way to explain it would be to think of a battery. Nature is about balance. You know that when you put the positive side of a magnet close to the negative side of another magnet, they're going to try to pull together. They're trying to "balance" themselves. Now think about that with electrons. The electrons in the negative side of the battery really REALLY want to get to the positive side. We take advantage of this by creating circuits. We give them a path to get to that positive side that they desperately want to reach, and we have them do a little work for us along the way. The MORE free electrons in the negative side of the battery, the more POTENTIAL there is for us to use (Voltage). This is why a fully charged battery will read its rated voltage, or close to it, and why a depleted battery will read a noticeably LOWER voltage -- reflecting the fact that many of those electrons are now at the positive side of the battery. There aren't AS MANY of them left that need to get over there anymore, so much of the FORCE they provide when traveling through the circuit has dissipated. Think of a bunch of people waiting outside a store before Black Friday. All of those people are electrons. Outside the store is the negative side of the battery. The store itself is the circuit. The register is the positive side of the battery. As soon as those doors are open, those people are going to rush to get to the items they want, grab 'em, and run for the registers! The more people (electrons) there are waiting in line (negative side), the more FORCE they'll have when they make their rush to grab what they want and checkout (positive side). I hope that helps.
@@derpderpinson7449 Glad to help! It took me a while to grasp it completely myself. Once I did, I'd figured an explanation like this would be helpful to others.
Thank you for the explanation, but I don't understand the meaning of potential flowing from high to low. Doesn't this mean electrons should flow from plus to minus?

I like these videos. I'm surprised by how many electrons are needed to flow per second. It's also interesting how you can change the voltage by the way you configure the power lines. Thanks for the content.
Best thing here is when you move between cities with different voltages and have to either discard some of your appliances or adapt them When my mom moved to my state's capital (which is 110v) she had her kitchen wired to be 220v in order to keep the fridge, then when she bought a new microwave oven she bought a 220v one... now she's moving to a new apartment where she can't change the kitchen voltage and I'm getting the microwave oven because I now live in a 220v city lmao
I really liked this video thanks so much. Other sources don't use animations and so its harder to process. I'm an engineering student so I'll really recommend this video to other engineering students
Take a battery, on one side it has too many electrons, on the other it needs electrons, so upon connecting the 2 sides with a wire the electrons will naturally go to the positive side, voltage is basically how much negative charge is separated from the positive (hence potential difference). So a voltage is potentially how much energy the electrons would give off while travelling from the negative to the positive part
@@warmusblanketus9729 what and how many material in this world that already has a 'build in' voltage into them ? If there is If none, then how to create voltage ? Thank so much for your help, im very greatfull to you for this.
@@mohdrozakhiismail7273 voltage is "created" when there are at least 2 substances, one of which is positive (has fewer electrons) and the other is negative (has too many electrons), between these two is a potential difference (voltage) which means that by connecting them with a conductor like copper, electricity will start to flow from the negative to the positive side. If a material had a voltage on its own then theoretically it would always have electricity running through it
You made an excellent video explaining voltage! One remark though, at 3:35 you say the light will be dimmer when two batteries are in parallel. This is not true -unless you ment it relative to two batteries in series. You probably ment the latter, but now it sounds as if you ment to say the light will be dimmer relative to just one battery.. Suggestion: add text saying "dimmer relative to two batteries in series".
First of all nice video. I just have one question: at 6:24 you say need 0.2 C/s or 0.2 A to the lamp to stay on, but (6.242)*0.2 is 1.2484 , not 1.8726. Why you moltiply by 0.3 insted of by 0.2? thank you.

Love the way you explain things. I'm in my 50s learning electronics for cars and get confused when told volts in a battery and volts in the circuit my brain keeps telling me it should be amps in the circuit and volts in the battery. But I like the way you teach. Haven't got it yet but you push me in the right direction thank you

Huzzah! I’ve always struggled with keeping the concept of voltage (and current etc) in my brain regardless of analogies, but I’m no dummy. Highly educated and a successful engineer, but always keep coming back to this stuff. It’s slowly starting to stick!
Super useful video! Thank you very much for making this and sharing it with us. A quick question if you will, please. I am curious to know if countries that are on the 240+V system are more inefficient? Thinking about this in terms of climate change and if it would be more beneficial if we all adopt one system over the other.
actually, 240V is more efficient than 120V since you need lower current for the same amount of power. lower current = lower voltage drop in the wire = less wasted energy
Nicely explaination. Voltage is electromotive force or potential energy between two Charge in conductor , positive charge and negative charge. current is flow of charge over time. no voltage meaning no current will be flow to the inductor.
Thank you for your effort you are a lifesaver :) Great playlist and amazing explanation! *Just a side note, in Saudi Arabia and other gulf countries we use 220-240 V AC current and not 110-127V.
*summary:* - voltage is the potential difference across a wire - *voltage* can exist without current (like pressure on bottom of closed water container) - *DC* is when electron flow is only in one direction - *AC* is when electrons switch between flowing one way and another
This is what I call a quality content video that gives you really useful information, compared to the meaningless Kardashians-style videos. Keep on your good work!
How does a 9v battery differ from a 3v battery. Is it that the 9v battery has more electrons in its -ve terminal compared to the 3v battery or do they both have the same number of electrons in the -ve terminal but the 9v battery keeps its electrons at a higher pressure. Is it volume of electrons that is different or is it pressure? If it is pressure , does it mean that 1amp of current coming from a 9v battery source can do more work than 1amp coming from, a 3v source.
Good question and nobody answered. Go back to thinking of water,, a big pool has more water than a small one and so has more potential or volume and so will flow longer., verses a very tall very thin water tank that has as much volume of water as the big pool.. On the big pool you could have a big or small drain, and the same for the tall tank. So you could adjust the valves of the big pool and the thin tall tank tank to flow out at exactly the same volume. The valves are the resistance. So if you crank your 12 volt battery car to start which is the valve fully open the battery will drain fast but it will crank. A one volt battery will drain so fast the starter will not even turn..
It is already explained in the video , the 9v battery produces 9 joules of energy per coulomb and the 3v battery produces 3joules of energy per coulomb.so at the end,the 9 v battery gives more energy and makes the electrons move faster

@@EngineeringMindset I've already seen it, I went to watch it again after you said it, but that video also seems to flow from the flat end of the battery to the protruding end, and all the batteries that can get in my country have the protruding end as the positive terminal, and the flat end as the negative terminal, so the flow animation that in the video from the positive terminal to the negative terminal should flow the other way round 🤔

Hi, can u please help me? If a Voltage of 1.5V means that there are 1.5J carried by every coulomb of charge passing through the lamp, then how do the electrons have any more energy or pushing force left to return to the other side of the battery?

Nice video very popular analogy voltage to charges what pressure to water flow what extremal sides temparatures to heating what atmospherical pressure to wind what charges speed to magnetic field what gravity to movement in general to fall of material as well what catalysing to reactions .

How does a 9v battery differ from a 3v battery. Is it that the 9v battery has more electrons in its -ve terminal compared to the 3v battery or do they both have the same number of electrons in the -ve terminal but the 9v battery keeps its electrons at a higher pressure. Is it volume of electrons that is different or is it pressure? If it is pressure , does it mean that 1amp of current coming from a 9v battery source can do more work than 1amp coming from, a 3v source.
Good question and nobody answered. Go back to thinking of water,, a big pool has more water than a small one and so has more potential or volume and so will flow longer., verses a very tall very thin water tank that has as much volume of water as the big pool.. On the big pool you could have a big or small drain, and the same for the tall tank.
So you could adjust the valves of the big pool and the thin tall tank tank to flow out at exactly the same volume. The valves are the resistance. So if you crank your 12 volt battery car to start which is the valve fully open the battery will drain fast but it will crank. A one volt battery will drain so fast the starter will not even turn..
It is already explained in the video , the 9v battery produces 9 joules of energy per coulomb and the 3v battery produces 3joules of energy per coulomb.so at the end,the 9 v battery gives more energy and makes the electrons move faster

huzzah!
Feels good watching your videos🙏🏿🙏🏿🙏🏿❤️. I'm currently under Electrical Apprenticeship.
So more voltage=more power? So in sci-fi adding more “power” to the shields is just applying more voltage?
Thank you!! It helped me a lot.
I have learned my electricity chapters but once I think about potential difference or voltage. My all concept become confusing this video helped me alot
thanks for the analogy. very useful. i knew most of it but needed a refresher.
*Potential difference is the difference between inside the pipe and outside*
These words made my mind blow
first time impressed by any youtube teacher
SO much needed this videos back in 2009. Thank you very much mate!
Really thank you very much for what you offer .. Thanks From SAUDI ARABIA
This will help me to get back into electrical drafting
I didn't got the concept understanding in schools but now i have understood it thanks to you
this is the best video about electric I have seen
Hi, Paul. I just wanna say many thanks.
Your videos help me to learn useful words for my engineering career (I'm not a native english speaker).
Obviously, I'll buy a coffee in paypal hehe.
This single video can bear the complete understanding of basic electricity theory on the elbows.........
Another awesome video. I always love understanding electricity. Now I am better than most around me🔌
Thinking of voltage as pressure is an amazing analogy
Thankyou, you have made the info much easier to understand.
The channel is super helpful! Thank you for sharing! I am starting to pursue HVAC carreer!
I have to rewatch these videos several times
I have learnt alot what all my professors could not in years
Huzzah! XD (and thank you for these vids! I am having a hard time grasping the electrical system in vehicles so I'm trying to find videos like this to understand it better)
Level of study for electrical engineers
Hi, can u please help me? If a Voltage of 1.5V means that there are 1.5J carried by every coulomb of charge passing through the lamp, then how do the electrons have any more energy or pushing force left to return to the other side of the battery?
man we need more people like you, great channel keep it up
absolutely loving these explanations. Has helped me a ton with explaining how our electrical devices work to my elementary class. Just friendly note typo at 4:28
Nice video very popular analogy voltage to charges what pressure to water flow what extremal sides temparatures to heating what atmospherical pressure to wind what charges speed to magnetic field what gravity to movement in general to fall of material as well what catalysing to reactions . Interesting is the voltage phenomenon and the potential as a conventional concept .. Interesting approach is the based on analogy reasoning .
