6. Electric potential and electric potential energy

are synonyms for the same physical quantity -- the potential energy per unit charge.

are synonyms for the same physical quantity -- the potential energy of a given charge.


are two different but related physical quantities (electric potential energy is electric potential per unit charge).

are two different but related physical quantities (electric potential is electric potential energy per unit charge).
