☑️ELECTRIC POTENTIAL IS A SCALAR QUANTITY.☑️

⤵⤵⤵⤵

✍️In between vector and scalar quantity …..it is always easy to deal with a scalar quantity……..

⤵⤵⤵⤵

✍️so , we were in search of some scalar quantity to explain electric field easily without considering diretion(which is a difficult task).

⤵⤵⤵⤵

☑️Then we came with electric potential …which is a scalar quantity to explain electric field☑️.
