On moving a charge of ` 20 ` coulomb by ` 2 cm`, ` 2J` of work is done , the potential difference between the points is .

A

` 0. 1 V`

B

` 8 V`

C

` 2 V`

D

` 0. 5 V`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A

Potential difference between two points in a eelc - tric field is ,
`V_A - V_B= W/( q_0)`
where , `W` is work by moving charge `q_0` from point `A` to `B` .
So, `V_A - V_B =2/(2 0)`
(Here : `W =2 2 J, q_0 = 20 C`)
`=0. 1 V` .
