Study Notes
Electric Potential Difference
- The SI unit of electric potential difference is the volt (V).
Change in Electric Potential Energy
- A point charge of +1.0 µC moved in an electric field experiences a change in electric potential energy of 10.0 J.
- This results in a change in electric potential difference of -1.0 × 10^7 V.
Electric Field Strength
- A voltmeter measures a potential difference of 200.0 V between two parallel plates that are 2.0 cm apart.
- The strength of the electric field between the plates is calculated to be 1.0 × 10^4 N/C.
Work Done on a Charge
- When a +1.0 µC point charge is moved to create a +200.0 V change in potential, the work done is 2.0 × 10^-4 J.
Magnitude of Charge
- If 4.0 × 10^-18 J of work changes the electric potential difference by 25.0 V, the magnitude of the charge involved is 1.6 × 10^-19 C.
