Question

Find the work done (in eV) by an agent in taking a charge of 10 uC from point X to point Y if the potential difference between X and Y is 35 V.
Options
A 7.0 x 10-4
B 3.6 x 1014
C 2.2 x 1015
Correct Answer
D 0
Correct Answer

Option C is the correct answer.

Detailed Explanation

Step 1 - work in joules: W = qV = (10x10-6)(35) = 3.5x10-4 J. Step 2 - convert to electronvolts: W = (3.5x10-4)/(1.6x10-19) = 2.19x1015 eV.

Hint

Step 1 - work in joules: W = qV = (10x10-6)(35) = 3.5x10-4 J.
