Answer :
Answer:
[tex] 72\times 10^{-6}[/tex] J
Explanation:
[tex]V[/tex] = Voltage of the battery = Potential difference across the plates of capacitor = 24 Volts
[tex]q[/tex] = Amount of charge being moved from one plate to another = 3 μC = 3 x 10⁻⁶ C
[tex]W[/tex] = amount of work done in moving the charge
Work done is given as
[tex]W = q V[/tex]
[tex]W = (3\times 10^{-6})(24)[/tex]
[tex]W = 72\times 10^{-6}[/tex] J
Answer:
The work is 7.2x10^-5 VC
Explanation:
To calculate the work it takes to move a positively charged particle to a negative plate equals:
W = -V*(-q)
where
W is the work = ?
V = voltage = 24 V
q = charge = -3 uC = 3x10^-6 C
Replacing values:
W = (-24 V)*(-3x10^-6 C) = 7.2x10^-5 VC
