The correct Answer is:
To find the potential difference between two points A and B when a charge is moved, we can use the relationship between work done, charge, and potential difference. The formula we will use is: \[ V = \frac{W}{Q} \] where: - \( V \) is the potential difference (in volts), - \( W \) is the work done (in joules), - \( Q \) is the charge (in coulombs). ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the given values**: - Work done \( W = 2 \, \text{J} \) - Charge \( Q = 20 \, \text{C} \) 2. **Substitute the values into the formula**: \[ V = \frac{W}{Q} = \frac{2 \, \text{J}}{20 \, \text{C}} \] 3. **Calculate the potential difference**: \[ V = \frac{2}{20} = 0.1 \, \text{V} \] 4. **Conclusion**: The potential difference between points A and B is \( 0.1 \, \text{V} \). ### Final Answer: The potential difference between the two points will be \( 0.1 \, \text{V} \). ---
