Electric potential is the amount of work needed to move a unit charge from a reference point to another.
Work can only be done when displacement occurs.
Work is measured in Joules (J). It is also used as unit for energy
Energy is the ability or the capacity to do work.
Electric Potential Energy describes how much stored energy a charge has when moved by an electrostatic force
Electric Potential - amount of electric potential energy per unit charge
Electric Potential = the amount of work needed to move a unit charge from a reference point to another = amount of electric potential energy per unit charge.
Electric potential energy is the energy that is needed to move a charge against an electric field.
The SI unit of Electric Potential is Volt(V)
Electric potential energy is the energy that is needed to move a charge against an electric field.
You need more energy to move a charge further in the electric field, but also more energy to move it through a stronger electric field.
