Difference in a charge between two electrodes in a cell causes a ----between electrodes?
Potential difference.
What causes the flow of electric current?
Electromotive force (potential difference, voltage) between two points of a conductor.
What are two potential hazards of using radioactive substances?
getting radiation poisoning which causes your lungs to flake. which leads to u dying
What are some causes of globalism?
There are a number of potential causes of global cooling. The two main causes are thought to be the heavy use of sulphate aerosols throughout the 20th century and changes to the tilt of earths axis altering the orbital path of the Earth.
What is th potential difference that causes charges to move in a circuit?
The answer is voltage, resistance, electric discharge, and current. It is caused by a difference in energy stability between two points that favors a charge to move down a potential difference.
What does pd stand for in physics?
Pd in the periodic table stands for palladium.
Can potential difference ocur without current?
Yes. This is the build up of charge. The difference in charge, aka the potential difference, is the driving force that causes current to flow. The third law of thermodynamics is in action when the circuit is completed and the current flows between two point as a result of the potential difference between those two points. (p.s. I am an American girl)
How is chemical energy considered potential energy?
Think of a glo-stick. The chemicals found inside have chemical energy, they have the potential to change each other chemically. The relative position of the two chemicals causes the system to have potential energy as well, being that they are separated only by a thin, easily breakable barrier.
Explain the flow of charges between two substances one is neutral and another is negatively chagred?
electrons push on each other while the difference in potential between the two substances causes them to jump across
What are the two main forms of energy?
The two main forms of energy are Kinetic energy and Potential Energy. Kinetic energy is motion energy. Potential energy is energy stored in matter.
What are the two major types of potential energy?
Gravitational and chemical potential energy.
What causes potential difference?
A potential difference causes an electric current. Think of it like a river : the source of water is the most elevated point of the river, so the water has a lot of gravitational potential energy. The end of the river is the lowest point of it, so the water has very low gravitational potential energy. What happens between these two points? Water flows! This analogy can be applied to electricity; the potential difference is caused, for example, by a battery in an electric circuit.
