Question

Three joules of work is needed to shift 10 C of charge from one place to another. The potential difference between the places is ______. *
0.3 V
0.5 V
5 V
3 V​

Answer 1

Answer:

The potential difference between the places is 0.3 V.

∴ 1st option i.e. 0.3V is the correct option.

Explanation:

Given

Work done W = 3J

Amount of Charge q = 10C

To determine

We need to determine the potential difference V between the places.

The potential difference between the two points can be determined using the formula

Potential Difference (V) = Work Done (W) / Amount of Charge (q)

or

$\:V\:=\:\frac{W}{q}$

substituting W = 3 and q = 10 in the formula

$V=\frac{3}{10}$

$V=0.3$ V

Therefore, the potential difference between the places is 0.3 V.

∴ 1st option i.e. 0.3V is the correct option.
