2 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Section 1 Electric Potential Chapter 17 Objectives Distinguish between electrical potential energy, electric potential, and potential difference. Solve problems involving electrical energy and potential difference. Describe the energy conversions that occur in a battery.

3 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Section 1 Electric Potential Chapter 17 Electrical Potential Energy Electrical potential energy is potential energy associated with a charge due to its position in an electric field. Electrical potential energy is a component of mechanical energy. ME = KE + PE grav + PE elastic + PE electric

6 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Section 1 Electric Potential Chapter 17 Potential Difference Electric Potential equals the work that must be performed against electric forces to move a charge from a reference point to the point in question, divided by the charge. The electric potential associated with a charge is the electric energy divided by the charge:

7 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Section 1 Electric Potential Chapter 17 Potential Difference, continued Potential Difference equals the work that must be performed against electric forces to move a charge between the two points in question, divided by the charge. Potential difference is a change in electric potential.

13 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Section 1 Electric Potential Chapter 17 Sample Problem, continued Potential Energy and Potential Difference The potential difference is the magnitude of E times the displacement.

14 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Section 1 Electric Potential Chapter 17 Potential Difference, continued At right, the electric poten- tial at point A depends on the charge at point B and the distance r. An electric potential exists at some point in an electric field regardless of whether there is a charge at that point.

15 © Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Publishing Company Section 1 Electric Potential Chapter 17 Potential Difference, continued The reference point for potential difference near a point charge is often at infinity. Potential Difference Between a Point at Infinity and a Point Near a Point Charge The superposition principle can be used to calculate the electric potential for a group of charges.
