A charge of

+3.0\,\mu\text{C}

makes one complete trip around a simple circuit that contains only a

12\,\text{V}

battery in series with a single resistor. The battery does

+36\,\mu\text{J}

of work on the charge. What work is done on the charge by the resistor? (a)

+36\,\mu\text{J}

(b)

-36\,\mu\text{J}

(c)

-12\,\mu\text{J}

(d)

-108\,\mu\text{J}
