Definition of potential difference WA,B / q = VA,B
Calculations for uniform field V = E * d
Electric potential of a point charge
Potential of many point charges
Potential of a sphere
Electrostatic potential energy
Reason one: U = q * V
(Change of K) + (Change of U) = 0 | change of K | = | q * pd |
Reason two: E = - (gradient of the V )
Visualization of scalar field by equipotential lines.
Equipotential lines are perpendicular to the field lines
E is always in the direction of the decreasing potential
Equipotential lines for uniform field
Positive and negative equipotential lines for point charge
Equipotential lines for a physical dipole
**Electric work is path independent Electric potential and reference point
VA = VRef - ( WRef , A / q )
Theorem: voltage is equal to potential difference VA,B = VA - VB Potential is relative, voltage/pd is absolute
