voltage generation
Voltage generation is the process of creating an electric potential difference between two points, which drives electric current. It typically occurs when a force or energy source moves charged particles, such as electrons, within a conductor. For example, in a battery, chemical reactions release electrons, creating a voltage difference. In a generator, mechanical motion (like turning a turbine) moves magnetic fields near coils of wire, inducing an electric voltage through electromagnetic induction. Essentially, voltage is the "push" that causes electric charges to flow, powering devices by providing the necessary energy to move electrons through circuits.
