1.How do we define electric potential at any point in space ? 2.How does the electric potential change along the direction of the net electric field?Explain them in details.

1. The electric potential at any point in space, is the work done in moving a unit charge from infinity to that point.

2.The electric potential varies radially by decreasing as the distance from the electric field increases.

Explanation:

1. The electric potential at any point in space, is the work done in moving a unit charge from infinity to that point. It is defined mathematically as, V = W/q where V = electric potential, W = work done in moving charge q into electric field and q = charge. For the work done of moving a charge q into an electric field of charge q' at a distance r between them, W = kqq'/r and work done per unit charge in moving q in electric field is V = W/q = kqq'/r ÷q = kq'/r, Also, for an electric field, E, V = ∫E.dr where r is the direction moved by the charge in the electric field.

2. Since the electric potential V = kq'/r, V ∝ 1/r since k and q' are constant. So, the electric potential varies radially by decreasing as the distance from the electric field increases.
