Question

any one property of electrostatic potential energy ?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

$\boxed{\underline{\underline{\bold{\mathtt{Electrostatic\: potential\: energy }}}}}$:—

The electrostatic potential energy of a point charge at a point in electric field is the work done in taking the charge from

reference point which is generally taken as or at infinity to that point without change in its kinetic energy.

$\bigstar{\boxed{\underline{\bold{\mathsf{Properties}}}}}$:—

◾ Electric potential energy is a scalar quantity but , it may be positive, negative or zero.

◾Its unit is same as unit of work or energy that is joule

◾Its S.I. system unit also Joule

◾ Some times energy is also given in electron-volts.

◾Where, 1eV = $1.6 \times 10^{-19}$Joule.

◾ Electric potential energy always depends on reference point.

◾Generally , the Potential Energy at distance ( r ) = infinity is taken as zero.
