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

Question

If a charge q is transported from point A to point B through a potential difference V (where V = VB - VA), what is the work W done?
Options
A W = q / V
B W = V / q
C W = qV
Correct Answer
D W = ½qV
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

The text states: 'The work W done in transporting a charge q from one point-A to a second point-B is W=q(VB-VA)=qV' (Page 10).

Hint

Check Equation 25.1 in the document.
