When a 2 μC charge is carried from point A to point B, the amount of work done by the electric field is 50 μJ…..

Q. When a 2 μC charge is carried from point A to point B, the amount of work done by the electric field is 50 μJ. What is the potential difference and which point is at a higher potential ?

(a) 25 V, B

(b) 25 V, A

(c) 20 V, B

(d) both are at same potential

Ans: (b)
Sol: Work done by conservative force

$\displaystyle W_c = -(U_B -U_A)$

$ \displaystyle W_c = q(V_A -V_B)$
