Question 3

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

Answer

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.
