Explanation:
The electric potential, or voltage, is the difference in potential energy per unit charge between two locations in an electric field. ... To find the electrical potential at a chosen spot, we ask how much the electrical potential energy of an imaginary positively charged particle would change if we moved it there.

Explanation:
ᴇʟᴇᴄᴛʀɪᴄ ᴘᴏᴛᴇɴᴛɪᴀʟ:
electric potential at a point in electric field is defined to be equal to the minimum all done by an external agent in moving a unit positive charge from infinity or reference point to the point against their electrical force of the field and electric potential at a point in electric field is numerically equal but opposite in sign to the work performed by electrical force to bring unit positive charge from infinity to the point if w is the work done by external agent in bringing a positive test a charge q from infinity to your point then the potential at that point
V=Work done by electric field/q0
the SI unit of electric potential is Joule per coulomb or volt
