Answer:
Electric Potential Energy:
The energy that is needed to move a charge against an electric firld is called Electric Potential Energy
Electric Potential Difference:
The amount of work done in carrying a unit charge from one point to an other in an electric field is called Electric Potential Difference.
Relation:
Relation between Electric potential and electrical potential energy is given by
Here PE represents Electric potential energy
and is Electric potential difference
it means electric potential difference is the difference in electric potential energy divided by the charge.
