The work done in bringing a unit positive charge from infinity to a given point against the direction of electric field is known as electric potential. Explanation: The work required to get a unit positive charge from infinity to a specific place against an electric field is known as the electric potential at that point. It reflects the potential energy per unit charge at a specific position and is expressed in volts (V). This work is independent of the path taken and is only concerned with the initial and final positions.
