Question

Electric potential energy is the energy of a charge based on

A.
the magnitude of its charge and its position in an electric field.
B.
the magnitude of its charge, its mass, and its speed.
C.
its mass and height above a given reference point in an electric field.
D.
its speed and the direction of its motion relative to a second charge.

Answer 1

• EPE is the ability to provide a charge within a circuit. It can be represented as a vector quantity, which has magnitude and direction.
• Hence A is correct
