Answer:

V = 5 Volts

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following data;

Work done = 20 Joules

Charge = 4 Coulombs

To find the potential difference;

Mathematically, the work done in moving a charge is given by the formula;

W = qv

Where;

W is the work done

q is the quantity of charge

v is the potential difference

Substituting we have;

20 = 4 * v

V = 20/4

V = 5 Volts
