Electric potential energy is a potential energy (measured in joules) that results from conservative Coulomb forces and is associated with the configuration of a particular set of point charges within a defined system.
Electric potential (also called the electric field potential, potential drop, the electrostatic potential) is defined as the amount of work/energy needed per unit of electric charge to move the charge from a reference point to a specific point in an electric field.
The electric potential is the electric potential energy of a test charge divided by its charge for every location in space. Because it's derived from an energy, it's a scalar field. These two fields are related.
Define electric potential and electric potential energy. Describe the relationship between potential difference and electrical potential energy. Explain electron volt and its usage in submicroscopic process. Determine electric potential energy given potential difference and amount of charge.
