What direction does a a positive charge point?
A positive charge points in the direction of the electric field it creates or is placed in. By convention, electric field lines start from positive charges and point toward negative charges. Therefore, if you have a positive charge, the electric field lines will emanate outward from it. In summary, a positive charge points away from itself in the direction of the electric field.
A negatively charged object is placed within a positive electric field. what happens to the object?
Electric Field between positive and negative charges. If the Electric Field in which both the positive and negative charges are present is stronger than the Electric Field between the two charges we are talking about, the the negative charge will move away from the positive charge in that positive direction of the field. If not, then the negative charge will get attracted to the positive charge and stay at the position of the positive charge. It will be pulled toward the source of the electric field. (Novanet)
What electric charge can either be positive or negative?
Positive charge is one of the two possible electrical charges, the other is ..........? the NEGATIVE charge.
What is the smallest unit of positive charge called?
The smallest unit of positive charge is called a proton. It is found in the nucleus of an atom and carries a positive electric charge.
Does current electricity have positive and negative charges?
No electric charges may be positive or negative - electrons have a negative charge; ions have a positive charge.
What are the kinds of electric charge?
The kinds of electric charge are positive charge and negative charge
What has positive electrical charge?
A proton has a positive electric charge.
What is proton electric charge?
A proton has a positive electrical charge and an electron has a negative electrical charge.
What is positive elementary electric charge CALLED?
The positive elementary electric charge is called a proton.
How do the particles of an atom differ in electric charge?
some is positive and some are negative and some are neutral and thats how there differ
In which direction does the electric field point at a position directly north of a positive charge?
The electric field points directly away from a positive charge. Therefore, at a position directly north of a positive charge, the electric field would also point directly away from the positive charge.
What does a positive mean for electric field strength?
A positive electric field strength indicates that the field is directed away from a positive charge or towards a negative charge. It signifies the direction in which a positive test charge would move if placed in the electric field.
Compare and contrast The Electric Field Around The Negative Charge And The Electric Field Around A Positive Charge?
A negative charge is caused by a excess of electrons and a positive charge by their lack.
How does a negative point charge behave in an electric field produced by a positive point charge?
A negative point charge will be attracted towards a positive point charge in an electric field.
What direction does a a positive charge point?
A positive charge points in the direction of the electric field it creates or is placed in. By convention, electric field lines start from positive charges and point toward negative charges. Therefore, if you have a positive charge, the electric field lines will emanate outward from it. In summary, a positive charge points away from itself in the direction of the electric field.
What is true about an electric field around a positive charge?
It will be directed away from the positive charge. It will attract any other negative charge and repel any positive charge. Its magnitude is given by E= KQ/R where K = 9x 109 C2m-2N-1 Q is the charge producing field R is the point where electric field is to be calculated
A negatively charged object is placed within a positive electric field. what happens to the object?
Electric Field between positive and negative charges. If the Electric Field in which both the positive and negative charges are present is stronger than the Electric Field between the two charges we are talking about, the the negative charge will move away from the positive charge in that positive direction of the field. If not, then the negative charge will get attracted to the positive charge and stay at the position of the positive charge. It will be pulled toward the source of the electric field. (Novanet)
