Question

Electric potential is potential energy ______.

पर्याय

• per unit charge

• none of these

• per unit volume

• per unit time

Answer 1

Electric potential is potential energy per unit charge.

Explanation:

Electric potential V is the work done in bringing unit positive charge from infinity to the point in an electric field, and the potential energy U is the work done in bringing any finite charge from infinity to the point in an electric field. They are related as, U = qV or V = `"U"/"q"`.
