Question

what is electric potential​

Answer 1

Answer:

An electric potential is the amount of work needed to move a unit of charge from a reference point to a specific point inside the field without producing an acceleration. Typically, the reference point is the Earth or a point at infinity, although any point can be used.

Answer 2

Answer:

.....

Explanation:

Electric potential can be understood as the value assigned to a point in space , whose change will represent a change in the potential energy.

Mathematically,

A change in potential or potential difference is the work done by external force to move a unit charge from one point to other.

$\Delta V = \frac{W_{ext}}{Q}$

Also it can be looked at as the negative line integral of the electric field.

$\Delta V = \oint \overrightarrow{E}.\overrightarrow{dr}$
