Question

define electric potential at a point.how is electric potential related work​

Answer 1

An electric potential (also called the electric field potential, potential drop or the electrostatic potential) is the amount of work needed to move a unit of charge from a reference point to a specific point inside the field without producing an acceleration.

(The + charge is moving against nature; work is required to move it against the E field.) (When work is done to move an object against nature, the PE of the object increases. So the charge possess more PE when at B.) (For the same charge, the electric potential is greatest at locations of higher potential energy.)

Answer 2

Answer:

Electric potential is the amount ofelectric potential energy that a unitarypoint electric charge would have if located at any point in space, and is equal to the work done by an external agent in carrying a unit of positive charge from the arbitrarily chosen referencepoint (usually infinity) to that pointwithout
