Potential difference from work per charge

Moving a \(6\,\mu\text{C}\) charge in a falling magnet investigation requires \(0.065\,\text{J}\) of work. Calculate the potential difference. Enter the numerical result and choose the interpretation that matches the field physics.

Worked practice: physics data and result

Read the physical quantities first, then calculate the result and state what it means.
