State the relation between potential difference, work done and charge moved.

The relation between potential difference, work done and charge moved is given by-

Potential Difference (V) is equal to the work done (W) per unit charge moved (Q). 

$Potential\ difference=\frac{Work\ done}{Charge\ moved}$

$\Rightarrow$                              $V=\frac{W}{Q}$

In terms of work done, it can be given as-

When a charge $Q$ moves between two points whose potential difference is $V$, the amount of work done $W$ is given by - $W=Q\times V$
