How can electric potential be high when electrical potential energy is realitively low?
Electric potential can be high when electrical potential energy is relatively low if the charge is low as well. ... It is correct to say that an object with twice the electric potential of another has twice the electrical potential energy only if the charges are the same.
How does tidal energy convert to potential energy?
Potential energy includes that of mass in a gravitational field. The water in a lake high in a mountain has potential energy which can be converted by a hydro electric generator when allowed to fall by gravity. Sea water retained at high tide can be used in the same way when the tide has receded
If a proton moved from 0 V potential to 5 V potential would its potential energy increase or decrease?
Electric field points from high potential to low potential. Positive particles had tendency to follow electric field. If you are moving the particle against this tendency you are doing work, and this work give more potential energy to the particle.
What are atoms as independent particles?
as, u all know element's exist in a free state in nature, like gold, in same way the atoms exists independently in nature, as, they are only the smallest particle no, more further can be divide, so, as, it is independent in nature.
As independent particles atoms have what potential energy?
High Potential Energy
Is Book on a high shelf chemical or potential energy?
Potential energy.
What is the difference between electric potential and electric potential energy?
Electric potential energy is electric energy that is stored in a battery. so all the energy it creates is stored within the battery. It doesn't get used until someone uses it.=Electric potential is the amount of electric potential energy per one coulomb of charge at one point in a circuit compared to the potential energy per one coulomb of charge at another point in circuit also called voltage.=
What is energy from a high position?
Potential energy
IS HYDRO ENERGY POTENTIAL OR KINETIC?
Both. Rainwater is gathered in a reservoir and held in by a dam. At that stage it has potential energy because it is high up. That energy came from the Sun that evaporated the water from the ocean. The water is then run down a chute at high speed. At that stage it has kinetic energy which is used to drive a turbine that rotates an electric generator to produce electrical energy.
Which energy stored by being high up?
"Gravitational potential" or just "potential" energy.
What is the flow of electricity charge?
it is the rate at which electric charges pass though a conductor. The charged particle can be either positive or negative. In order for a charge to flow, it needs a push (a force) and it is supplied by voltage, or potential difference. The charge flows from high potential energy to low potential energy.
Do electrons move up or down a potential gradient?
The potential gradient gives the electric field intensity E at point in electric field which is directed from high to low potential. An electron being a negative charge particle therefore will tend to move from low potential to high potential, hence will move up the electric field
