Question
a. How much energy in joules is required to move a charge of $12 \mu \mathrm{C}$ through a difference in potential of $6 \mathrm{~V}$ ?b. For part (a), find the energy in electron-volts.
Step 1
To find the energy in joules, we can use the formula: Energy (J) = Charge (C) × Potential difference (V) Given, Charge = 12 μC = 12 × 10^(-6) C Potential difference = 6 V Energy (J) = (12 × 10^(-6) C) × (6 V) Energy (J) = 72 × 10^(-6) J Energy (J) = 72 μJ Show more…

A battery of potential difference $V=12 \mathrm{~V}$ is connected to a resistive strip of resistance $R=6.0 \Omega$. When an electron moves through the strip from one end to the other, (a) in which direction in the figure does the electron move, (b) how much work is done on the electron by the electric field in the strip, and (c) how much energy is transferred to the thermal energy of the strip by the electron?
