The Volt


Volt


                                V = E/Q                 1 Volt = 1 Joule / 1 Coulomb

1.       Calculate the potential difference across a bulb if 20 C transfers 4 J of electrical energy.

2.       Calculate the emf across a dynamo if 600 J of energy is transferred by 25 C of charge.

3.       A bulb has a potential difference of 6V across it. Calculate the energy is transferred by 90 C.

4.       A train motor operates on a potential difference of 25 kV .Calculate the charge that transfers  800 kJ of electrical energy.

5.       A torch bulb runs off a cell of emf 1.5V Calculate the energy transferred by a charge of 0.27 C

6.       A bulb takes a current of 0.25 A. How many Coulombs per second? It transfers 60W of power. How many Joules per second? Calculate the emf of the supply.
