What is potential energy per unit charge?
The electric potential.
Which term describes the energy per unit charge in a circuit?
The SI unit of electric charge is called the coulomb. It is a derived unit, and is defined as the amount of charge moved by a steady state current of one ampere for one second. Alternatively, it is defined as the amount of charge across a capacitance of one farad charged to a potential of one volt. In terms of elementary charge, from nuclear physics, it is defined as the charge represented by about 6.24150965 x 1018 protons or electrons.
In physics what is an electron volt?
In physics an electron volt is a very small unit of energy. An electron volt is the amount of energy gained by the charge of an electron once it has moved across an electric potential difference of one volt.
What is the difference between electric potential and electric potential energy?
Electric potential energy is electric energy that is stored in a battery. so all the energy it creates is stored within the battery. It doesn't get used until someone uses it.=Electric potential is the amount of electric potential energy per one coulomb of charge at one point in a circuit compared to the potential energy per one coulomb of charge at another point in circuit also called voltage.=
What is the definition of electrical energy?
electrical energy - energy made available by the flow of electric charge through a conductor;
What is the difference between electrical potential energy and potential difference?
Electric potential is the electric potential energy per unit coulomb. So unit for electric potential is J/C and that of electric potential energy is simply J
What is potential energy per unit charge?
The electric potential.
What unit shows the difference in charge between two points?
I don't think such a unit is used, or would make much sense, in physics. That sounds like the description of voltage - unit volt. However, the volt is not really a difference in electric charge, but rather, of electric potential. It can be understood as potential energy related to electric fields: if there is an electric potential between two points, it requires a certain amount of energy to move a unit charge from one point to the other. Thus, the unit volt is equivalent to joules / coulomb.

How is a circuit formed?
The amount of electric potential energy per unit of charge that would be possessed by a charged object if placed within an electric field at a given location.See related links below.
What is an electron vault?
1 electron-volt is a small unit of energy. It's the amount of energy gained or lost by the (amount of electric charge on one electron) moving through a (potential difference of one volt). 1 joule of energy is the same as about 6,241,400,000,000,000,000 electron-volts.
In physics what is an electron volt?
In physics an electron volt is a very small unit of energy. An electron volt is the amount of energy gained by the charge of an electron once it has moved across an electric potential difference of one volt.
What is used to pontential difference?
The amount of energy per unit charge needed to move a charged particle from a reference point to a designated point in a static electric field.

What is electro static potential at a point?
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 single electrode potential?
An electrode potential is the potential difference that develops when an electrode of one element is placed in a solution containing its ions. In a galvanic cell, electricity is produced by the electrode potential of the two metal electrodes and their corresponding electrolytes.
What is machanical energy?
Mechanical energy is associated with the motion or position of an object. It can occur as potential energy or kinetic energy.
