Electric charge is a fundamental physical property possessed by subatomic particles that determines their electromagnetic interactions. Like mass, length, and time, electric charge is one of the basic quantities of the universe. It defines how an object is influenced by electric fields and how it generates its own electric field. The interaction between charge and field is the source of the electromagnetic force, one of the four fundamental forces of nature. Electric charges exist in two types:

Electric voltage is a quantity that represents the electric potential difference between two points in an electric field. Voltage is defined as the potential energy per unit charge, and its unit in the SI system is the volt (V). Mathematically, it can be defined as:Where:V: Voltage (V),EP: Potential energy (J),q: Electric charge (C)are expressed.Potential energy is defined by a formula that depends on the charges and the distance between them.Electric Charges" image-alternate="" image-element-fo
