skalaaripotentiaali
Skalaripotentiaali, also known as scalar potential or electrostatic potential, is a fundamental concept in physics, particularly in the study of electrostatics and electromagnetism. It is a scalar field that describes the potential energy per unit charge at any point in space due to the presence of electric charges. The scalar potential is denoted by the symbol φ (phi) and is measured in volts (V) in the International System of Units (SI).
The scalar potential is closely related to the electric field. The electric field (E) is the negative
The scalar potential can be calculated using the principle of superposition, which states that the total potential
In practical applications, the scalar potential is often used to analyze and design electrical circuits, calculate
