Electric Potential: Path-Independence, Equipotential Lines, and Calculation

Description

This lecture covers the concept of electric potential as a scalar quantity that is easier to calculate than the electric field components. Topics include path-independence, gradient of scalar functions, equipotential lines, evaluation of the potential function, and the superposition principle for calculating electric fields.
