The total electric potential energy is doubled. This type of problem would be on a physics test. Also known as electrostatic potential energy, inherent electrical power is a form of potential energy. It is measured in joules, abbreviated J.

This measurement is in the International System of Units metric system. The symbol for electric power is Use. Electrical potential energy is the potential energy that is in systems that have electric fields that are time-variant. The word in this energy is to bring the systems together, even when they are distances apart.
