Question

Electric potential in electrostatic is analogous to _________ in heat.

Answer 1

1. Potential is defined as the electrical property of a substance that specifies the direction of the flow of charge.
2. Electric potential gives the direction of flow of charge that is from higher potential to lower potential.
3. In the same way, the temperature also gives the direction of the flow of heat, that is, from high temperature to low temperature.

Hence, electric potential in electrostatic is analogous to temperature in heat.
