State the SI unit and one non-SI unit of potential energy. |
Answer» SI unit of energy : the joule (J) Non-SI unit of energy : the electronvolt (eV). In electrostatics, one joule is the change in electric potential energy when a charge of one coulomb is moved through a potential difference of 1 volt. Therefore, 1J = 1C × 1V, so that 1V = 1J/C. |
