Electric potential is amount of work required to move a unit charge from a reference point or surface to a specified point in an electric field. Accordingly, the energy possessed by a charged particle is due to its position with respect to the electric...

Electric potential is the potential energy per unit of charge associated with a static (time-invariant) electric field, also called the electrostatic potential, typically measured in volts. It is a Lorentz scalar quantity. The difference of electrical...
