The term equipotential comes from combining two words, ‘equi’, which means ‘equal’, and ‘potential’, which makes it ‘equal potential’ or ‘equipotential’. This term arrives from its usage in vector calculus and topological science, where the word ‘equipotential’ refers to a surface with a constant scalar value. This equipotential of a scalar potential of 3 dimensions […]

Electroplating is a generic term for methods that result in a metal coating on a solid substrate by reducing the metal’s cations with a direct electric current. An electrolytic cell’s cathode (negative electrode) is the part that will be coated; the electrolyte is a solution of a salt of the metal that will be coated;

The amount of work required to shift a unit charge from a reference point to a specific place in an electric field is known as electric potential. The reference point is usually Earth, but any place outside of the electric field charge’s effect might be utilised. Voltage is another term for electric potential. The aim

To comprehend what electric potential is, one must first know what electric potential energy is. Electric potential energy is the negative of the work done by an electric force to move an object from one point to another. In layman’s terms, it’s the amount of energy required to move an object against an electric field.

In classical mechanics, force, energy and potential are related to each other. A body accelerates due to the net force acting on that body. As the body moves further the kinetic energy increases and its potential energy decreases. Object possessing electric field property exerts a force on charged objects. If the charged object is positively

The analysis of systems involving vectorial electric fields increases in complexity with an increase in the number of charges involved, mainly due to the addition of multiple vectors. Energy concepts circumvent that problem as they deal with scalars only. Scalar addition is much easier to implement. In addition, for systems involving continuous charge distribution, the

A dipole is defined as an arrangement of two opposite and equal charges linked by a line passing through their centres, with the dipole length being the distance between them. Assume that a random point exists anywhere, and we want to know how much potential the following dipole generates at that location. Because there are

To learn about electric potential derivation, we need to know the electrostatic potential. Potential is the amount of work done to bring a unit positive charge from infinity to that point. Line integration of electric field Line integration of an electric field is the amount of work done to move unit positive charge along the

Point charges, similar to electrons, are among the key construction squares of issue. Additionally, round charge movements (like charge on a metal circle) make external electric fields definitively like a point charge. The electric potential on account of a point charge is, henceforth, a case we need to consider. We can use math to notice

The amount of work needed for moving a unit of charge from one reference point to another specific point against an electric field is known as electric potential. The SI unit of electrical potential is volt, and there is a formula to convert electric potential to point charge electric dipole. A dipole’s electrical potential relies
