Question

What change in potential energy does a 4μC charge experience when it moves between two points that differ in potential by 80V?
Options
A 3.2 × 10⁻⁴J
Correct Answer
B 3.2 × 10⁻⁵J
C 3.2 × 10⁻⁶J
D 3.2 × 10⁻⁷J
Correct Answer

Option A is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

The change in energy is W = qΔV = (4×10⁻⁶)(80) = 3.2×10⁻⁴J.

Hint

Apply W = qΔV directly with the given charge and potential difference.
