Electric Potential and Potential Difference

When the part...

Question

When the particle of charge 10MC is brought from infinite to a point in electric field 10mJ work is done by external forces. What is the potential at that time.....??

Solution

Charge Q = 10 x 10^-6 C
Work done W = 10 x 10^-3 J
Potential at P = V = W/Q = 10 x 10^-3 J/(10 x 10^-6 C)
=10³ V = 1000 V.

Q. Assertion :A small electric dipole is moved translationally from higher potential to lower potential in uniform electric field. Work done by electric field is positive. Reason: When a positive charge is moved from higher potential to lower potential, work done by electric field is positive.
