$(1.602 \times 10^{-19})$ The electron volt $(eV)$ is a unit of energy defined as the amount of kinetic energy gained by a single electron accelerating from rest through an electric potential difference of $1 \ V$.
Since the charge of an electron is $e = 1.602 \times 10^{-19} \ C$, the energy in Joules is given by $E = qV = (1.602 \times 10^{-19} \ C) \times (1 \ V) = 1.602 \times 10^{-19} \ J$.
Therefore, $1 \ eV = 1.602 \times 10^{-19} \ J$.

$A$ unit positive point charge is taken slowly through an infinitesimally thin tube that is inside a charged dielectric sphere of radius $R$, having uniform positive charge density $\rho$. The initial and final positions of the charge are marked by $A$ and $B$ at distances $2R$ and $3R$ respectively, from the centre of the sphere. In this process, the magnitude of the total work done on the point charge is $\frac{\rho R^2}{n \epsilon_0}$. The value of $n$ is : ($\epsilon_0$ is the permittivity of vacuum)
