Point A is at
a. 6 J of work to move 2 C of charge from point B to point A.
b. 14 J of work to move 2 C of charge from point C to point B.
c. 20 J of work to move 2 C of charge from point C to point A.
a.
The work to move the charge from point A to point B.
Answer to Problem 42A
The work done = 6 J.
Explanation of Solution
Given data:
Voltage at point A = +10 volts.
Voltage at point B = +7 volts
Formula used:
The work done in moving charge is given as:
Here, q is the charge and
Calculation:
The work done in moving of 2 C charge from point A to Point B
Conclusion:
The work done = 6 J.
b.
The work to move the charge from point C to point B.
Answer to Problem 42A
The work done = 14 J.
Explanation of Solution
Given data:
Voltage at point C = 0 volts.
Voltage at point B = +7 volts
Formula used:
The work done in moving charge is given as,
Here, q is the charge and
Calculation:
The work done in moving of 2 C charge from point C to Point B
Conclusion:
The work done = 14 J.
c.
The work to move the charge from point C to point A.
Answer to Problem 42A
The work done = 20 J.
Explanation of Solution
Given data:
Voltage at point A = +10 volts.
Voltage at point C = +0 volts
Formula used:
The work done in moving charge is given as,
Here, q is the charge and
Calculation:
The work done in moving of 2 C charge from point A to Point B
Conclusion:
The work done = 20 J.
