Question

Explain electric potential due to system of charges

Answer 1

Answer:

An electric potential is the amount of work needed to move an unit positive charge from a reference point to a specific point inside an electric field without producing acceleration.

Answer 2

First of all , Let's know what Potential is ?

Potential :- At any point in an electric field, it's the amount of work done by an external agent against electric forces in moving a unit positive charge from Infinity to that point Without changing it's Kinetic Energy.

Therefore,

The potential due to a Continuous system of charges is given by,

$\: \large \boxed{\large \bold \pink{\int k \frac{dq}{r} }} </p><p>$

Now,

For different system of charges,

Potential is also different.
