Correct option is D
The correct answer is (d) 1 Joule.
· The work done when a charge moves across a potential difference is given by the formula:
W=Q×V
where:
· W is the work done in joules,
· Q is the charge in coulombs, and
· V is the potential difference in volts.
· If 1 coulomb of charge moves across a potential difference of 1 volt, the work done is:
W=1 C×1 V=1 Joule
· Therefore, the work done is 1 joule.
Information Booster:
· Work Done (W): The energy required to move a charge across a potential difference, measured in joules.
· Potential Difference (V): The difference in electric potential between two points, measured in volts.
· Charge (Q): Measured in coulombs, it represents the quantity of electricity.
· Joule (J): The unit of work or energy in the International System of Units (SI).
· 1 Volt Definition: A potential difference of 1 volt implies 1 joule of energy is used to move 1 coulomb of charge.
