NCERT Book for Class 12 Physics Part 1 – (Chapter 2 – Electrostatic Potential And Capacitance)
Chapter 2 – Electrostatic Potential And Capacitance
This chapter explores the concept of electrostatic potential, which represents the work done in bringing a unit positive charge from infinity to a point in an electric field. It introduces potential difference, equipotential surfaces, and their relationship with electric fields. The chapter further explains capacitance, the ability of a system to store electric charge, along with the working of capacitors in series and parallel. Practical applications such as energy storage, dielectric materials, and real-life capacitor uses are also discussed, providing a clear understanding of how electrostatic principles are applied in electrical and electronic systems.and is important for Class 12 board exams and competitive exams like NEET and JEE.
