Define electrostatic potential and potential difference
Answers
Answer:
electrostatic potential
potential difference
Explanation:
electrostatic potential === electric potential is the amount of work done moving at a unit charge from infinity to the point
potential difference = the difference in electric potential between two points is known as potential difference

What is Electric Potential?
Electric potential (V) is the property of points in space. Electric potential can be defined in several ways:
The value of the electric potential at a point in space numerically gives the amount of work that needs to be done to bring a unit positive charge from infinity to that point.
A charge q is said to have a potential energy of Vq if it is at a point in space which has a potential of V.
For example, if you place a charge q at a point, space nearby will have a non-zero value of potential. The electric potential at a point due to a charge at a distance r from it is given by:
V=kqr
What is Electric Potential Energy?
Electric potential energy (U) is the property of a system. Two charges in the vicinity of each other are said to have potential energy.
The electric potential energy associated with two charges separated by a distance r is given by:
U=kq1q2r
