Question

How much energy is given to each coulomb of charge passing through a 6 V battery?​

Answer 1

We know that the potential difference between two points is given by the equation,

$V = \frac{W}{Q},$ where,

W is the work done in moving the charge from one point to another

Q is the charge

From the above equation, we can find the energy given to each coulomb as follows:

$W = V × Q$

Substituting the values in the equation, we get

$\sf{W = 6V × 1C = 6\:J}$

Hence, 6 J of energy is given to each coulomb of charge passing through a 6 V of battery.
