Question

.define the electric potential

Answer 1

An electric potential (also called the electric field potential or the electrostatic potential) is the amount of work needed to move a unit positive charge from a reference point to a specific point inside the field without producing any acceleration. ... The electric potential at infinity is assumed to be zero.

Answer 2

The work done in bringing unit positively charged from Infinity to any point in an electric field is called electric potential at that point.

If in bringing a charge +Q unit from infinity to any point in an electic field,W unit of work is done, then the electric potential V of that point=V=W/Q units

Therefore, electric potential=work done/charge
