Why do atoms have no electric charge even though most Of their particle have charges?
The negative particles (electrons) are balanced by the positive particles (protons).
What particles have negative electric charges equal to the positive charges of the protons?
The electrons; their negativity cancels out the protons' positivity so the atom is electrically neutral.
What are the charges of the particles?
It depends what particles. The electron mainly has - charges for example.
Why do electrons produce an electric field?
Some fundamental particles in nature, happened to have an electric field. We just named one of them "electron". That's the simple answer. From an engineering point of view, there is no such thing as an electric field or electric line of force. Its a classical physics construct that we came up with, in order to explain what happens when charged particles interact with each other. Why do some particles have charges in the first place? Its because of some complex quark level interaction that I don't yet understand. Thus we have positive and negative charges, which attract each other, while like charges repel and we made up "electric lines of force" to explain them.
In order for electrical current to flow through a solid?
In solids it is only the negative electric charges on electrons that move through the circuit. The positive charges on protons remain in their fixed positions in atoms. Electric current is a measure of the rate at which electric charges move past a given point in a circuit.
Are electric charges carried by particles of matter?
yes
Why do atom have no electric charge even though most of their particles have charges?
Non ionic atoms have no electric charge, even though most of their particles have charge, because the positive particles (protons) balance the negative particles (electrons).
Why do atoms have no electric charge even though most Of their particle have charges?
The negative particles (electrons) are balanced by the positive particles (protons).
What kinds of charges do particles have?
Positive +, neutral 0, negative -.
What causes electrostatic force?
Particles of the same charge repel eachother
What is a basic property of the tiny particles that make up matter. electric charges can be positive or negative?
The property that makes up electric charge is called just that: "electric charge". Note that the particles also have other properties.
What is the continuous flow of electric charges through a material?
Yes, an electric current is the flow of charged particles.
What particles have negative electric charges equal to the positive charges of the protons?
The electrons; their negativity cancels out the protons' positivity so the atom is electrically neutral.
What is static charges?
A buildup of electric charge in an object caused by the presence of many particles with the same charge.
How does voltage gradient affect separation of charged particles in an electric field?
There is a direct relationship between the voltage gradient of an electric field and the separation of the charges. Higher voltage gradients will separate charges farther.
Moving electric charges will interact with?
Moving electric charges will interact with an electric field. Moving electric charges will also interact with a magnetic field.
How do you calculate the electric force between two charges?
electric force between 2 charges is equal to product of the amount of charge(in units) of both particles and a constant 9*109 divided by the square of the distance between them.
