Name a device which helps to maintain potential difference across a conductor (say, a bulb). (b) If a potential difference of 10 V causes a current of 2 A to flow for 1 minute, how much energy is transferred?

(a) Cell or battery helps to maintain potential difference across a conductor.

(b) Given: p.d. = 10 V, I = 2amp, t = 1 min = 60s.

We know that,

I = Q/t

Thus, Q = I x t

Q = 2 × 60

Q = 120 C

Work done = p.d. x charge moved

Work done = 120 x 10J

Work done = 1200J
