What does voltage actually measure?
– Measures how much energy a charge will gain/lose
– Measures how much work that can be done by a charge

• Sample Problem
The electric field is 625 N/C between 2 large charged parallel plates are 4 cm apart.a. What is the electric potential difference
between the plates?
b. What work will you do to move a proton from the – to the + plate?
+ + +
–––
D = 0.04m
p+
a) V = E d
= (625N/C)(0.04m)
= 25 V
E = 625 N/C
d = 0.04 m
q = 1.6 x 10-19 C
b) W = PEe = q ∆V
= (25 V)(1.6 x 10-19C)
PEe = 4.0 x 10-18 J
