No. Protons and electrons are both charged, but they have opposite charge. Protons and electrons both have mass, but electrons have 1/1800th the mass of a proton. Protons are comprised of three quarks, but electrons are not composite particles. Protons have a physical size, but electrons are point particles (as far as we have been able to determine). The number of protons and electrons in a neutral atom are the same.
What else can I help you with?
Does a neutron have the same mass as an electron or a proton?
A neutron has approximately the same mass as a proton. Electrons have much lower mass.
Do protons have the same magnitude as electrons?
Yes. A proton has the same magnitude of charge as an electron, but the charge is of the opposite sign.
If proton and an electron have the same speed which has the longer de Broglie wavelength?
It is electron since wavelength = h/(mv), and since proton's mass > electron's mass, electron's wavelength is longer.
How big is a proton compared to an electron?
A proton is about 1,836 times heavier than an electron. In terms of size, the proton is also larger than an electron. However, the exact size of both particles is extremely small, with the proton being about 100,000 times smaller than an atom.
Force experienced by an electric field E is F N What will be the force on a proton in the same field. Take mass of the proton to be 1836 times mass of an electron?
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.
Does an electron or proton have a larger charge?
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.
Does a neutron have the same mass as an electron or a proton?
A neutron has approximately the same mass as a proton. Electrons have much lower mass.
Does the proton the same mass as the electrons?
No, the proton's mass is roughly 2000 times that of the electron.
How does the force exerted by a proton on a proton compare with the force exerted by a proton on an electron at the same distance?
The force exerted by a proton on a proton and a proton on an electron at the same distance will be the same in magnitude but opposite in direction, due to Newton's third law of motion. This is because both protons and electrons have the same charge but opposite signs, leading to an equal and opposite force.
What is the size of electron proton and neutron?
The electron is the smallest having about 1/1836th the mass of a proton or neutron, which means that basically an electron has no mass. The neutron and proton weigh the same both having a mass of 1.
What is the proton and electron of lithium?
3 protons and same for electrons
If an electron and a proton have the same momentum which has the higher speed?
The electron, because it has much less mass than the proton and momentum is the product of mass and speed.
Do protons have the same magnitude as electrons?
Yes. A proton has the same magnitude of charge as an electron, but the charge is of the opposite sign.
Is the mass of the electron the mass of the proton?
No, there are the same number of protons and electrons in an atom, but I don't think that they have the same mass. You're right, an electron is 1,836 times lighter than a proton.
Which particle will have the same mass proton and electron proton and neutron electron and neutron or all three particles?
The masses of all three particles are different The masses of a proton and the mass of a neutron are very close, however. The mass of an electron is much smaller than the mass of a proton or neutron.
If proton and an electron have the same speed which has the longer de Broglie wavelength?
It is electron since wavelength = h/(mv), and since proton's mass > electron's mass, electron's wavelength is longer.
Where there is the same number of proton's as electron's the charge on the atom is considered?
neutral
