Today: Voltage or “Electric Potential” The 1120 version: Voltage V = kq/r from a point charge Voltage = potential energy/charge  V is “path independent” E = -dV/dr

Potential and E-field = external work done on charge to move it

Potential and E-field The fact that V is well defined arises from Which is exactly the same as (!)

Potential and E-field One way to find V(r) (given charges):

Voltage V = kq/r from a point charge !

So, what does Have to do with And why is that the same as
