How much work is done in moving a charge of 2 C across two points having a potential difference 12 V ?

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The amount of charge g, that flows between two points at potential difference V (= 12V) is 2 C.
Thus. the amount of work W, done in moving the charge is
`W = VQ`
`=12 V xx 2C`
`= 24J`
