An amount of 250 joules of work done in transferring 20 coulombs of charge from one terminal of a battery to another. What is the potential difference between the two terminals of the battery?
Concept used: Potential difference
Prerequisite: Knowledge of the potential difference
Step 1: Given data,
Step 2: Calculate the potential difference,
The expression for the potential difference between the two terminals of the battery is given by,
Here, is the potential difference.
Substitute the given values in the above equation,
Thus, the potential difference between the two terminals of the battery is 12.5 V.
