==Key Stage 3==
===Meaning===
[[File:ElectricField.png|right|300px|thumb|If a [[Electrical Charge|charge]] [[object]] is placed in an [[Electrostatic Field|electrostatic field]] it will have [[energy]] in the [[Electrostatic Potential Energy Store]].]]
The '''electrostatic potential energy store''' is the [[Energy Store|energy stored]] in a [[Electrical Charge|charged]] [[object]] that is in an [[Electrostatic Field|electrostatic field]].

===About The Electrostatic Potential Energy Store===
: The stronger the [[Electrostatic Field|electrostatic field]] the more [[energy]] in the '''electrostatic potential energy store'''.
: The greater the [[Electrical Charge|charge]] of the [[object]] the more [[energy]] in the '''electrostatic potential energy store'''.

==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
The '''electrostatic potential energy store''' is the [[Energy Store|energy stored]] in a [[Electrical Charge|charged]] [[object]] that is in an [[Electrostatic Field|electrostatic field]].

===About Electrostatic Potential Energy===
: '''Electrostatic Potential Energy''' is a [[Potential Energy|potential energy]] due to the position of a [[Electrical Charge|charged]] [[object]] in an [[Electrostatic Field|electrostatic field]].
: The '''electrostatic potential energy store''' of an [[object]] is related to two important factors:
*The [[magnitude]] of the [[Electrical Charge|charge]] - The greater the [[Electrical Charge|charge]] the greater the '''electrostatic potential energy store'''.
*The distance between [[Electrical Charge|charged]] [[object]]s - The greater the distance between 'like [[Electrical Charge|charges]]' the smaller the '''electrostatic potential energy''', the greater the distance between 'opposite [[Electrical Charge|charges]]' the greater the '''electrostatic potential energy'''.
