Question

One Volt is equal to -
  1. 1 Joule
  2. 1 Newton/Coulomb
  3. 1 Joule/Coulomb
  4. 1 Coulomb/Newton

A
1 Newton/Coulomb
B
1 Joule/Coulomb
C
1 Coulomb/Newton
D
1 Joule
Solution
Verified by Toppr

Volt is the electrical unit of voltage or potential difference (V).

V is related to Change in Potential Energy ΔU as
V=ΔUq

From above formula, We get 1 Volt potential difference when a change of 1 joule of Potential energy is there in moving a charge of 1 Coulomb.

Therefore, 1 Volt = 1 Joule/Coulomb.
