Question

How much work would be done on a particle with 5.0 C of charge on it if it moved from an equipotential line at 5.5 volts to another equipotential line at 3.5 volts?

Answer 1

10J

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question we have the following information

The charge of the particle is q = 5 C

The equipotenetial level is V1 = 5.5 v

and also the

equipotenetial level is V2 = 3.5 v

So we calculate the

work done W=q x (v1-v2)

workdone = 5 x (5.5-3.5)

= 5x2

=10 J

Workdone = 10 J

So we conclude that the workdone on a particle with these information is 10j
