Electron Volt is the unit of:

Correct answer: C. Energy

  • A. Voltage
  • B. Current
  • C. Energy
  • D. Power

Explanation

Some of the common units for Energy are: Joules (J), Electron Volt (eV) which is equivalent to 1.60x10-19J, kilowatt-hour (kWh) which is equivalent to 3.60 x 106J, and erg which is equivalent to 1.0x10-7JVolt is the unit for Voltage/EMF, Ampere is the unit for Current and Watt is the unit for Power.

About Electrostatics

Electrostatics describes forces between charges through Coulomb's law, electric fields and field intensity, then uses electric potential to measure energy per unit charge. Capacitors store charge and electrical energy, with capacitance depending on geometry and dielectric material, not simply on the amount of charge present.
