PHY 102 Coulomb's law and Electric Fields Objective Question
Take CBT

Question

What are the SI units for potential difference?
Options
A Joules per Coulomb (J/C)
B Volts (V)
C Newtons per Coulomb (N/C)
D Both A and B
Correct Answer
Correct Answer

Option D is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Page 10 states: 'Its units are those of work per charge (joules/coulomb) and are designated as volts (V): 1 V = 1 J/C'. Therefore, both J/C and V are correct units.

Hint

Look for the definition and unit conversion provided immediately after the definition of potential difference.
