How much energy is given to each coulomb of charge passing through a 6 V battery?
The amount of work done is equal to energy consumed. The energy given to each coulomb of charge is equal to the amount of work required to move unit charge
Potential difference =
Work Done = Potential Difference x Charge
Given,
Charge = 1 C
Potential difference = 6 V
Work Done = 6 x 1 = 6 J
Total 6 J of energy is given to each coulomb of charge passing through a battery of 6 V.
When a 12 V battery is connected across an unknown resistor, there is a current of 2.5 mA in the circuit. Find the value of the resistance of the resistor.
