So electric field is the force a charge can exert on another charge at any given distance around it given by formula
E= kQ/d^2
Electric potential (voltage) is the amount of E.potential energy another charge can have at a distance from the original charge given by formula
V= kQ/d
my question is why is the d in electric potential not squared??
Is it because for electric potential we are assuming the field lines strength is uniform?
