Question

1. Define electric potential. How is it denoted?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

Electric potential energy is a scalar quantity and possesses only magnitude and no direction. It is measured in terms of Joules and is denoted by V. It has the dimensional formula of ML2T-3A-1.

General Formula: Voltage = Energy/Charge

SI Unit: Volt

Denoted by: V, ∆V, U, ∆U

Dimension: ML2T-3A-1

Answer 2

Answer:

The electric potential—that is, the work W done in moving the positive charge through a distance d—is W = F′d = −qEd. ... If an electric field is defined as the force per unit charge, then by analogy an electric potential can be thought of as the potential energy per unit charge.
