Electric Potential

Electric Potential

Electric potential at a point is the work done in bringing unit positive charge from infinity to that point.

### Formula

$$V=\frac{W}{q}$$

### Terminologies

- V → Electric potential.

- W → Work done.

- q → Test charge.

### SI Unit

$$Volt(V)$$

### Dimensions

$$[V]=[ML^2T^{-3}A^{-1}]$$

### Usage

- Used in potential energy calculations.
