Just a few days ago, we were taught the basics of electricity in the IGCSE Physics syllabus. While he's said a great deal about potential difference and how it's the difference in voltage between two points in a circuit, he never bothered describing what "potential" itself was.
From what I have learned both from our physics teacher and the Internet, I guess it is actually just the short form of "potential electrical energy".
If it is so, why is the term so less discussed?
