VIN (Vehicle Identification Number)
Assigned by the manufacturer, this number is unique to each
vehicle and appears on the vehicle's registration and title.
V DC
Volts of direct current, as opposed to V AC.
VOLT V
The unit of voltage or potential difference.
One volt is the difference of potential between two points
of an electrical conductor when a current of 1 ampere flowing
between those points dissipates a power of 1 watt.
See Ohm's Law
It is named after the
Italian physicist Count Alessandro Giuseppe Anastasio Volta
(1745-1827).
More on Volta
VOLTAGE
Electrical pressure, the force that causes current to flow
through a conductor. Voltage must be expressed as a difference
of potential between two points since it is a relational term.
Connecting both voltmeter leads to the same point will show
no voltage present although the voltage between that point
and ground may be thousands of volts.
Calculations often involve Ohm's Law
