Electric Potential Difference
The amount of work done to move a unit charge from one finite position to another near other charges.
Electric Field
A region around a charged object where other charged objects experience a force.
Equipotential Surface
A surface where the electric potential is the same at every point.
Electric Field Strength (E)
The force experienced per unit charge at a point in an electric field.
Potential Difference (VA - VB)
The difference in electric potential between two points A and B.
Work-Energy Principle
The work done on a charge moving through an electric field is equal to the change in electric potential energy.
Charge Distribution
How electric charge is distributed over the surface of conductors.
Gauss's Law
A principle that relates the electric flux through a closed surface to the charge enclosed.
