Charge A is sitting in an electric field you know the following information:________
the magnitude of charge A and the magnitude of both the field and the potential at charge A position.
What would you do to get the potential energy of charge A?

Respuesta :

Answer:

The equation that will relate all the given parameters, in other to calculate the potential energy of charge A is:

∆V = ∆U/q, ∆V is potential at charge A position, q is magnitude of charge A, ∆U will be made the subject of the relation, which is the Potential Energy of charge A. The notation "∆" show, the quantities have both in values and final values, in the electric field.(Change in Electric potential and potential energy, due to the effect of the field)

Explanation:

The potential energy of a charged particle (Charge A) in an electric field depends on the magnitude of the charge(Known as stated in the question). However, the potential energy per unit charge has a unique value at any point in the electric field.
