The potential at point A of the electric field is 200 V, the potential at point B is 100 V. What work do

The potential at point A of the electric field is 200 V, the potential at point B is 100 V. What work do the forces of the electric field do when a 5mC charge moves from point A to point B?

Data: φA (potential at point A) = 200 V; φB (potential at point B) = 100 V; q (movable charge) = 5 mC (5 * 10-3 C).

To calculate the required work of the electric field forces, we apply the formula: A = q * (φA – φB).

Let’s calculate: A = 5 * 10-3 * (200 – 100) = 0.5 J.

Answer: When moving a given charge, a work of 0.5 J.
