Electrostatics is the study of electric studies of currents and fields.

Electric potential : is a location-dependent quantity that expresses the amount of potential energy per unit of charge at a specified location. When a Coulomb of charge (or any given amount of charge) possesses a relatively large quantity of potential energy at a given location, then that location is said to be a location of high electric potential. And similarly, if a Coulomb of charge (or any given amount of charge) possesses a relatively small quantity of potential energy at a given location, then that location is said to be a location of low electric potential.

Electric Potential Difference: is the difference in electric potential (V) between the final and the initial location when work is done upon a charge to change its potential energy.
