electrostatic potential due to a point charge is an electric field may b defined as the amount of work done per unit positive test charge in moving it from infinity to that point against the electrostatic force due to the electric field.

its unit is volt= 1 joule/coulomb

V= 1/4πE° .q/r

Hello Dost ☺

Answer :

Electrostatic potential:

Electrostatic potential at any point in an electric field is defined as the amount of work done in bringing a unit positive charge from infinity to that point.

Its unit is volt. Positive charges move from higher to lower potential regions.

Electrons, being negatively charged, move from lower to higher potential regions.

thanks ☺
