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

Answer:
V=U/q
EXPLANATION
Let's consider a point where a charge 'q' in an electric field, which has a potential energy 'U', then electric potential is simply the ratio of P. Energy and charge q.
V=U/q
and units are Joule/coulomb
It can be physically interpreted as work done within conservative filed in displacing a unit +ve charge from infinity to that point.
so we can also write as V=W/q
Hope it helps :)
