- 24-7 Potential due to a Group of Point Charges
- The net potential at a point due to a group of point charges can be found with the help of the superposition principle.
- First the individual potential resulting from each charge is considered at the given point.
- Then we sum the potentials.
- For n charges, the net potential is
- Example:
- Net
- Potential
- of
- Several
- Charged
- Particles
