While solving a problem, tran calculates an answer that has coulomb-volts as the units. which quantity did tran calculate? electric potential energy electric potential difference electric field electric potential?

The electric potential energy is measured in Joules;

The electric potential difference is measured in Volts;

The electric field is measured in N/C or V/m;

The electric potential is measured in Volts.

Let's transform C ·V into SI base units:

C = [ s · A ]

V = [ kg · m² ·s⁻³ · A⁻¹ ]

Therefore, C·V = [ kg · m² ·s⁻² ] = Joule.

The correct answer is A) electric potential energy.

The answer is: A) Electric Potential energy
