In this Flipping Physics lesson, Mr. P and the gang use gravitational potential energy to make sense of electric potential and electric potential energy. You’ll see how both gravity and electrostatics create concentric surfaces of uniform potential and discover how similar their equations truly are. Perfect for AP® Physics 2 and C: E&M students learning about electric potential, this video clearly connects key concepts in an intuitive and memorable way.\n
