What is formula of electric potential?
Answers
Answer:
In an electrical circuit, the potential between two points (E) is defined as the amount of work done (W) by an external agent in moving a unit charge (Q) from one point to another.
Mathematically we can say that, E = W/Q.

Explanation:
Electric Potential Formula
Method 1:
Electric Potential Formula
The electric potential at any point around a point charge q is given by:
V = k × [q/r]
Where,
V = electric potential energy,
q = point charge,
r = distance between any point around the charge to the point charge,
k = Coulomb constant; k = 9.0 × 109 N.
Method 2: Using Coulomb’s Law
Electrostatic Potential Formula
The electrostatic potential between any two arbitrary charges q1, q2 separated by distance r is given by Coulomb’s law and mathematically written as:
U = k × [q1q2/r2]
Where,
U is the electrostatic potential energy,
q1 and q2 are the two charges.
Note: The electric potential is at infinity is zero (as, r = ∞ in the above formula).
