If it takes $50 \mathrm {~J}$ of energy to move $10 \mathrm { C }$ of charge from point $A$ to point $B$, what is the magnitude of the potential difference between points $A$ and $B$ ?

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The potential difference $ V $ is given by $ V = \frac{W}{Q} $, where $ W $ is the work done (energy) and $ Q $ is the charge. Here, $ V = \frac{50 \mathrm{~J}}{10 \mathrm{~C}} = 5.0 \mathrm{~V} $.
