A stores it in its electric field.
This value can be calculated in either a static time-invariant or a dynamic varying with time electric field at a specific time in units of joules per coulomb, or volts V.
The electric potential is said to be 1 volt when 1 joule of work is done in b ringing a point from infinity to a point inside an electric field.
If an object is twice the mass, it will have twice the potential energy and similarly, if an object is located at twice its height, it will have twice the potential energy.
When we hook up a voltmeter to an electrochemical cell, we are measuring only the potential, or the energy of the electrons.
Electric Potential Work If a positive charge q is placed between two charged plates, A Positively charged and B negatively charged.
