When a charge of \(20 \mathrm{C}\) is taken from one point to another separated by a distance of \(0.2 \mathrm{~m}\), work of \(2 \mathrm{~J}\) is required to be done.
What is the potential difference between the two points?

  1. A \(2 \times 10^{-2} \mathrm{~V}\)
  2. B \(4 \times 10^{-4} \mathrm{~V}\)
  3. C \(8 \mathrm{~V}\)
  4. D \(0.1 \mathrm{~V}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(D) \(0.1 \mathrm{~V}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Charge, \(q=20 \mathrm{C}\) \[ \begin{aligned} d & =0.2 \mathrm{~m} \\ W & =2 \mathrm{~J} \end{aligned} \] Potential difference, \(V=\frac{W}{q}\) \[ =\frac{2}{20}=0.1 \mathrm{~V} \]
