nstant. 242. Electric Potential is the term applied to electriclevel. Currents flow from a place of high potential to aplace of low potential. In case the potential is equal,there is no flow of current. The production of current ispractically the process of maintaining a difference of po-tential.… … 238 PHYSICS 243. The Voltaic Cell (Fig. 145) is a machine for main-taining a constant difference of potential through constantchemical action. In its simplest form it consists of twometals joined by a conductor and moistened by some liquidthat will dissolve one of them. A jar of water acidulated…
