    the water allegory unfortunately breaks down very quickly. pressure is force per area. voltage is a difference in potential (~charge).

    i feel like someone might be better to really answer to your questions. my physics ed is … long gone.


    edit: ofc electrical currents (flow/wiggeling) heat up materials through interaction with it. so yeah electrons transmit the energy they get to tge materials.

    transistors (and diodes) are black magic to me. i learned to calculate, but never understood the how and why. you might wanna have a look into the avalanche effect, that is at play in a transistor switching. its a good rabbithole for a weekend, i promise!
