They are equal in magnitude but opposite in charge.
A proton has a positive electrical charge and an electron has a negative electrical charge.
The force experienced by a proton in an electric field will be the same as for any other charged particle with the same charge, because the force depends on the charge of the particle and the electric field strength. The charge of a proton is the same as the charge of an electron, just opposite in sign. The mass of the proton being 1836 times greater than the mass of an electron will not affect the force experienced by the proton in the electric field.
Proton's have a positive charge, neutron'shave a neutral charge, electron's have a negative charge
A proton has a positive charge of +1 An electron has a negative charge of -1 An neutron has no charge
The electric charge of a proton is +1, and the electric charge of an electron is -1. Therefore, a particle containing two protons and one electron would have a total charge of +2 + (-1) = +1.
A proton has a positive charge which is equal in magnitude but opposite to the charge on an electron, which is negative.
Protons : Positive unit chargeElectrons: Negative unit chargeNeutrons: No charge.
The mass of an electron is much smaller than the mass of a proton. An electron has a charge of -1, while a proton has a charge of +1.
A proton has a positive electrical charge and an electron has a negative electrical charge.
The electric charge of an electron is -1.602 x 10^-19 coulombs. This negative charge is equal in magnitude but opposite in sign to the charge of a proton.
A neutron, which has neutral charge
electron-negative, proton-positive, neutron-neutral
The proton (+) and the electron (-).
equal but opposite
The electric charges of the proton and electron are equal in magnitude (size, strength), and opposite in sign.
No. The electron and proton have the same amount of charge. Its just that the electron's charge is negative and the proton's charge is positive.
