Question

If 10 J of work (electric potential energy) is used in pushing 2 C of charge into an electric field, its electric potential relative to its starting position is a. less than 5 V c. more than 20 V. d. 20 V

Answer 1

Answer:

Option (a)

Explanation:

Let the cahrge is bringing from A to B.

According to the definition of potential difference

Vb - Va = w/q

Vb - Va = 10/2

Vb = 5 + Va

So it is less than 5 V
