Can there be a potential difference between two conductors that carry like charges of the same magnitude?
no there cant
What does the potential energy of two like charges do?
Two like charges repel each other
How do you create a potential difference?
Potential difference arises between two conductors when there is a difference in the charge content between them. So, to create it u can take out or pump in charges, which is the job done by a battery.
What is the force between two objects with opposite charges called?
An electric (or electrostatic) attraction.
How does the electric potential energy between two charged particles change if one particles charge is increased by a factor of two?
It is increased by a factor of 2
How much potential difference is there between two identical charges?
There is no potential difference between identical charges

Two charges are brought together This results in a corresponding increast in potential energy What can you say about the sign of the two charges Explain?
The charges are the same. To increase the potential energy, the agent must do + work on the charges. If the agent must do + work, then the charges are resisting being brought together.
Does a voltage have one terminal?
No. Voltage is the potential difference in energy between two charges. (Volts is joules per coulomb.) Since it is potential, that means it is relative, and in order to be relative, there must be two terminals.
What is the force between two objects with opposite charges called?
An electric (or electrostatic) attraction.
What is necessary for charges to flow between two points?
Either potential difference (apply voltage) or energy input (drag the charged particle)
How does the electric potential energy between two charged particles change if one particles charge is increased by a factor of two?
It is increased by a factor of 2
What is a difference in electric charge called?
The chemical gradient refers to the imbalance of substances across the membrane. The Electrical Gradient refers to the difference of charges between substances on different sides of the Membrane. The Electrochemical Gradient refers to the combination of the previous two gradients. The short answer is MEMBRANE POTENTIAL.
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 two factors determine the amount of electric force between two objects?
The product of the two charges and the distance between the charges.
