Question

The S.I unit of potential difference is?
Options
A Volt(J/C)
Correct Answer
B N/C
C J/m
D Volt (C/J)
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Potential difference, or voltage, is defined as the amount of work done (energy transferred, measured in Joules, J) per unit of charge (measured in Coulombs, C) to move a charge between two points. Therefore, 1 Volt (V) is equivalent to 1 Joule per Coulomb (J/C).

Hint

Recall the definition of electric potential difference in terms of work and charge.
