The correct Answer is:
To find the potential difference between two points when a charge is moved, we can use the formula: \[ V = \frac{W}{Q} \] where: - \( V \) is the potential difference (in volts), - \( W \) is the work done or energy required (in joules), - \( Q \) is the charge (in coulombs). ### Step 1: Convert Energy from eV to Joules The energy given is in electron volts (eV). We need to convert this energy into joules. The conversion factor is: \[ 1 \text{ eV} = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ J} \] So, we can convert \( 4 \times 10^{20} \text{ eV} \) to joules: \[ W = 4 \times 10^{20} \text{ eV} \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \text{ J/eV} \] Calculating this gives: \[ W = 4 \times 1.6 \times 10^{1} \text{ J} = 6.4 \times 10^{1} \text{ J} = 64 \text{ J} \] ### Step 2: Use the Formula to Find Potential Difference Now that we have the work done in joules, we can substitute \( W \) and \( Q \) into the formula for potential difference: \[ V = \frac{W}{Q} = \frac{64 \text{ J}}{0.25 \text{ C}} \] Calculating this gives: \[ V = 64 \div 0.25 = 256 \text{ V} \] ### Final Answer The potential difference between the two points is: \[ \boxed{256 \text{ V}} \]
