In physics what is an electron volt?

In physics an electron volt is a very small unit of energy. An electron volt is the amount of energy gained by the charge of an electron once it has moved across an electric potential difference of one volt.


Define electron volt?

An electron volt is a unit of energy consisting of the energy resulting from the product of an electron through a potential of one volt, ev= .16E-18 Joules.


How many electron volts for one volt?

The two are not compatible units. An Electron Volt is the amount of charge one electron gains or loses when it crosses an electrical potential difference of 1 volt.

A proton is in an electric field and has an electric potential energy of 0.5 J What is the electric potential voltage that it experiences?

First off you know that when it says "Proton" you should know that its a Positive (+) Charged subatomic particle! Now You use the equation that says --> Volt = Electric Potential Energy / Q Volt = 0.5 / +1 (proton) Volt = 0.5

What is the fundamental quantity of electricity indicating the ability to do work of forcing electrons to move?

The Electron Volt. Its the energy required to move one electron through a Potential Difference of one Volt. Commonly used to decribe size of particle accelerators 1 GeV , one Giga electron Volt , 1 X1012 electron Volts.


What is the relation between 1 electron volt and 1 joule?

The relation between 1 electron volt and 1 joule will really depend on the scattering that takes place.


What is an electron vault?

1 electron-volt is a small unit of energy. It's the amount of energy gained or lost by the (amount of electric charge on one electron) moving through a (potential difference of one volt). 1 joule of energy is the same as about 6,241,400,000,000,000,000 electron-volts.


How would you describe the mass of a proton and neutron?

How the masses of elementary particles are expressed depends on who you are, or at least on what you do. The obvious way to do it is in straightforward SI units, i.e. in Kg. In these units the proton mass is 1.6726 X 10-27 Kg and the neutron mass is 1.6749 X 10-27 Kg. The people most concerned with particle masses are particle physicists. Einstein's famous equation e = mc2 shows the exchange rate between mass and energy. To most people this is fascinating, but hardly a daily concern. To a scientist working with elementary particles, the interchange between mass and energy is a daily occurrence. To avoid continual finicky calculations, many physicists express particle masses in terms of their energy equivalent. The energy unit used is the electron-Volt, or eV. This is the kinetic energy of an electron which has been accelerated by a potential difference of 1 Volt. The eV is rather small, so most masses are given in MeV or million electron-Volt. The mass of a proton is 938.272 MeV and of a neutron is 939.566 MeV.
