To go from B to A, a
positive charge must climb
“up hill” – increases
potential energy. Hence A
is at higher potential than
B.
The electric potential at point A is _______ at point B
46% 1) greater than
32% 2) equal to

A) greater than
B) equal to
C) less than
Physics 102: Lecture 2, Slide 18
The electric field points toward lower
potential, but the electric field is zero
inside a conductor…so the potential
is equal everywhere!

Comparison:
Electric Potential Energy vs. Electric Potential
• Electric Potential Energy (U) - the energy of a
charge at some location.
• Electric Potential (V) - found for a location only –
tells what the EPE would be if a charge were
located there (usually talk about potential
differences between two locations):
U = Vq
• Neither has direction, just value.
Sign matters!
