Question

A cloud is at a potential of 10^6 v relative to the ground. A charge of 6c is transfered in a lighing stroke between the cload and the earth. The energy dissipated is

Answer 1

Answer:

Explanation:

we know that

power is given as the rate of doing work

so,

P = W/t

P = E ⁄ t

so

W/t=E/t

so W=E

here, the work done is given as the product of charge (q) and potential difference (V)

W = qV

so,

q = 6C

V = 10^6 volts

therefore W= 6*10^6

Answer 2

Answer:

The energy dissipated is 6*10⁶J.

Explanation:

Given:

Potential(V)=10⁶V

Charge(q)=6C

To find: Energy dissipated=?

Solution:

Here, the energy dissipated is in the form of work done,

We know that,

$W=qC$

W=6*10⁶J

Therefore, the energy dissipated is 6*10⁶J.
