Question

A test charge is moved from lower potential point to a higher potential point. The potential energy of test charge will
(a) remain the same
(b) increase
(c) decrease
(d) become zero

Answer 1

The potential energy of the test charge will increase. (option b)

• The energy held in an object as a result of its position in relation to others is known as potential energy.

• A test charge is transferred from a lower to a higher potential point. The test charge's potential energy will grow.
• As we know,

U=QV and

Q=+1,

U=V

Therefore, high potential results in high energy, while low potential results in low energy.

Answer 2

Answer:

(b) increase

Explanation:

TO FIND: The potential energy of test charge will

A test charge is moved from lower potential point to a higher potential point. The potential energy of test charge will be increases.

             When current is supplied to a circuit the test charge will posses its direction towards higher potential point from the lower potential point.

From potential energy derivation,

                    $U=qV$ Where U is the potential energy.

                                  q is the change of particular point.

                                   V is the electric potential.

             And $U=V$ when the the charge(q) at particular point is 1  

           The lower the potential, lower the energy transfer and higher the potential then higher is the energy transfer.
