To derive :

Relationship between Electric Field and Electric Potential .

Proof:

First of all , let's consider a charge q located at a specified point and emitting electric field . We shall also consider 2 closely located points named as A and B.

The distance between A and B be dx.

Since the dx distance is extremely small, we can consider that the Electric field E (from the charge) remains same at both the points.

Now the work done to move a unit positive charge from A to B will be :

 \boxed{ \bold{dW =  -  E \times dx }}

The negative sign denoted that the work done was against the Electric Field Direction.

For a unit positive charge , we know that work done us equal to the potential difference dV.

  \bigstar \:  \: \bold{dV =  -  E \times dx }

 \bold{ =  >  E =  -  \dfrac{dV}{dx} }

So we can say that Electric Field is the gradient of Electric Potential with respect to distance.

Answer:

The relationship between potential and field (E) is a differential: electric field is the gradient of potential (V) in the x direction. This can be represented as: Ex=−dVdx E x = − dV dx . Thus, as the test charge is moved in the x direction, the rate of the its change in potential is the value of the electric field.
