Question

In a circuit, 5C of charge is passed through a battery in 3 hours. The plates of the battery are maintained at the potential difference of 12 V. Then, the amount of work done by a battery is:
  1. 60 J
  2. 180 J
  3. 20 J
  4. 6.48 × 105 J

A
60 J
B
20 J
C
180 J
D
6.48 × 105 J
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Work done by a battery = potential difference × total charge passed
Workdone=12V×5C
Workdone=60J
