This study guide covers electric potential, including its definition as electric potential energy per unit charge, units of volts (V), and calculation using integration and superposition for point charges and continuous distributions. It also explores potential difference, its path independence, and relation to chemical processes like in batteries. Finally, it discusses the relationship between potential and field, focusing on the spatial rate of change, integration of field and displacement, and visualization using field maps and equipotential lines. The guide includes practice questions and emphasizes key exam topics and strategies.
