How much energy is given to each coulomb of charge passing through a 6 V battery?
Answers
Answer:
6*1.0=6 volts only
Answer:
Given that
Charge,q = 1 C
Potential difference V = 6 v
To find out
We need to find the energy given to each coulomb of charge passing through a 6 V battery
Solution
Principle of conservation of energy
From the principle of conservation of energy, we know that the work done by the system is equal to the energy supplied to that system.
The energy given to each coulomb of charge is equal to the amount of work required to move it.
Formula
Potential difference (V)= Work done (W) / Charge (q)
On rearranging the above formula we get
Work done (W) = Potential difference X Charge
Put the value of V and q in the above equation, we get
Work done (w) = 6 X 1
Work done = 6 Joules
Therefore, the energy is given to each coulomb of charge passing through a 6 v battery is 6 J.
