For our purposes its not important that charge is made up of
discrete particles we will treat charge like a fluid that is
infinitesimally divisible.

To move the charge against the electric field
force requires that we do work.

V = V2 V1
W = qV = q(V2 V1)
Conclusions:
So, if q is positive and V2 > V1 the field does
work (adds energy) to the charge.

If q is positive and V2 < V1 we have to do
work to move the charge.

Only the difference in potential matters we can
set the zero of voltage any place we wish.
So rather than writing V we just use V for the
voltage (potential) difference between two points.
