what is electric potential and potential difference ...?
also give me the formula...
Answers
ELECTRIC POTENTIAL-
The electrical potential is defined as the capability of the charged body to do work. When the body is charged, either electric electrons are supplied to it, or they are removed from it. In both the cases, the work is done. This work is stored in the body in the form of electric potential. Thus, the body can do the work by exerting a force of attraction or repulsion on the other charged particles.
POTENTIAL DIFFERENCE-
The electrical potential difference is defined as the amount of work done to carrying a unit charge from one point to another in an electric field. In other words, the potential difference is defined as the difference in the electric potential of the two charged bodies.
The unit of potential difference is volt.
HOPE IT HELPS. PLZ MARK HE BRAINLIEST.
If two charged bodies are in contact, the charge starts flowing from one conductor to other. The electric condition, that determines the flow of charge from one conductor to other in contact, is the electric potential.
The potential difference is expressed in volt (V). The potential difference between two points is said to be 1 volt if the work is done in moving 1-coulomb charge from one point to other is 1 joule.
1 volt= 1 joule/ 1 coulomb
