Question
60 J of work is done in transferring a charge of 5 C from a point of electrical potential 30 V to B.Calculate the electric potential of point B
Solution
The formula to calculate work done (W) in an electric field is:
W = Q * (Vb - Va)
where: Q = charge Vb = final potential (potential at point B) Va = initial potential (potential at point A)
We can rearrange this formula to solve for Vb:
Vb = W/Q + Va
Substituting the given values:
Vb = 60J/5C + 30V Vb = 12V + 30V Vb = 42V
So, the electric potential of point B is 42 Volts.
