Potential Reference at Infinity
Potential Reference at Infinity
The general expression for the
electric potential
as a result of a point charge Q can be obtained by referencing to a
zero of potential
at infinity. The expression for the
potential difference
is:
Taking the limit as r
b
→∞ gives simply
for any arbitrary value of r. The choice of potential equal to zero at infinity is an arbitrary one, but is logical in this case because the
electric field
and force approach zero there. The electric
potential energy
for a charge q at r is then
where k is
Coulomb's constant
.
