it is defind as the amount of work done to bring a unit positive charge from infinity to that point in the electric feild

it is devoted by V

.: electric potential = workdone/charge

V=w/q

si unit is v

What is static potential energy?

Static potential energy is the energy stored in an object due to its position or configuration in a gravitational field. It is calculated as the product of the object's mass, the acceleration due to gravity, and its height above a reference point. Static potential energy does not change as long as the object's position remains constant.

What is the amount of potential energy per unit charge that a static charge or electric current has?

The amount of potential energy per unit charge that a static charge has is equivalent to the electric potential at that point. For electric current, the potential energy per unit charge can be calculated by multiplying the electric potential difference across the circuit by the amount of charge.
