Question

what is electric potential

Answer 1

An electric potential (also called theelectric field potential or theelectrostatic 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. ... Theelectric potential at infinity is assumed to be zero.

Answer 2

Potential difference in an electric field is defined as the amount of work done in moving a unit positive charge from one point to another .PD= W/Q
