Understanding electric potential (voltage) is crucial in physics and electrical engineering. Our Electric Potential Calculator helps you quickly determine the voltage at a point due to a point charge, simplifying complex calculations for academic study or engineering applications. Accurately calculate electrostatic energy and explore fundamental electrical concepts with ease.
Formula:
The electric potential (V) at a point due to a single point charge (Q) at a distance (r) is given by:
V = k * Q / r
Where:
- V is the Electric Potential in Volts (V)
- k is Coulomb's Constant (approximately 8.9875 × 109 N·m2/C2)
- Q is the magnitude of the point charge in Coulombs (C)
- r is the distance from the point charge in meters (m)
