CONCEPT:
- Electric potential (V): The amount of work done to move a unit charge from a reference point (or infinity) to a specific point in an electric field without producing an acceleration is called electric potential at that point.
\({\rm{Electric\;potential\;}}\left( {\rm{V}} \right) = \frac{{{\rm{Work\;done\;}}\left( {\rm{W}} \right)}}{{{\rm{Charge\;}}\left( {\rm{q}} \right)}}\)
- Electrostatic Potential Energy: The amount of work done to move a charged particle from infinity to a point in an electric field is known as the potential energy of that charged particle.
CALCULATION:
Given that:
Electric charge (q) = 5 C
Potential difference (V) = 16 V
Work done (W) = charge (q) × potential difference (V)
Work done (W) = 5 × 16 = 80 J
