Question

The work done by the electric force to move a charge from Point A to Point B is 170 J. If you determine the charge to be 0.180 C. What is the potential difference VA-VB?

Answer 1

The potential difference is 944.45 volts.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The work done by the electric force to move a charge from Point A to Point B is, W = 170 J

Charge, q = 0.18 C

We need to find the potential difference. The work done by the charge per unit electric charge is called electric potential such that :

`V=(W)/(q)`

`V_A-V_B=(170\ J)/(0.18\ C)`

`V_A-V_B=944.45\ volts`

So, the potential difference is 944.45 volts. Hence, this is the required solution.
