Work done in moving a charge of \(25 \mathrm{C}\) is \(50 \mathrm{~J}\). Calculate potential difference, between two points.

  1. A \(0.5 \mathrm{~V}\)
  2. B \(1 \mathrm{~V}\)
  3. C \(2 \mathrm{~V}\)
  4. D \(2.5 \mathrm{~V}\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) \(2 \mathrm{~V}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

The potential difference \(V\) between two points is defined as the work done \(W\) in moving a unit positive charge \(q\) from one point to another. The formula is given by \(V = \dfrac{W}{q}\). Given values are \(W = 50 \text{ J}\) and \(q = 25 \text{ C}\). Substituting these…
