According to my book, 'The potential at a point is said to be 1 volt when 1 joule of work is done in bringing 1 coulomb charge from infinity to that point.' But I wonder how it is possible. As the charge is being brought from infinity, the work done = force * infinity, thus, the work done would be infinity indeed. Please help me out.
