What is a device that move electrons along a path often a battery?

A device that moves electrons along a path is called a circuit. In a circuit, electrons flow from the negative terminal of a battery, through the components in the circuit, and back to the positive terminal of the battery, creating electrical energy.


A battery has a difference in potential energy between the positive terminal and negative terminal which units express the difference?

Volts. Volts is another term for potential.


A battery is called an?

A battery is called an electrochemical cell, which generates electrical energy through a chemical reaction. The chemical reaction involves the flow of electrons from the negative terminal (anode) to the positive terminal (cathode) of the battery.


The potential difference of a battery depends on having an excess number of electrons at the negative terminal and a deficient number of electrons at the positive terminal?

That is true but not very - the excess of electrons at the negative terminal is small. The important thing is that if you place a load (radio set, light bulb etc.) on the battery the electrons flow through the load and this movement is supported by energy supplied by chemical action in the battery.


Because it has a potential difference between the positive and negative terminals what can act as an electron pump?

A battery has a potential difference between its terminals due to a build-up of charge separation (positive and negative terminals). This potential difference can act as an electron pump by causing the flow of electrons from the negative terminal to the positive terminal through an external circuit, thereby generating electrical energy.

What type of stored energy does a battery contain?

A battery stores chemical energy that is converted into electrical energy when needed. This chemical energy is generated through the reaction between the battery's positive and negative electrodes.


What is the potential energy of a charged battery?

The potential energy of a charged battery is the stored energy that can be converted into electrical energy when the battery is connected to a circuit. This energy is a result of the separation of positive and negative charges within the battery, creating a potential difference that can drive the flow of electrons through a circuit.


When you connect the positive to the negative and the negative to the positive does the battery dies?

If you connect the positive and the negative end of a battery directly with a cable, (1) you'll get dangerously high currents, and (2) the battery will quickly run out of energy. The battery itself might also get damaged, due to the high currents.


How do the battery separate the negative energy and the positive energy?

Batteries separate negative and positive energy using chemical reactions that occur within the battery. The negative energy is stored in the anode (typically made of a metal like zinc) and the positive energy is stored in the cathode (often made of a material like manganese dioxide). When the battery discharges, electrons flow from the negative terminal (anode) to the positive terminal (cathode), creating an electrical current.


In a 1.5V battery taking the negative terminal as 0.0V what is the electrical potential energy of an electron leaving the negative battery terminal?

Somebody is trying a trick question! The electron that comes out of the negative terminal has zero potential energy. With respect to the positive terminal it has -1.5V of electrical potential energy, and so does every other electron at 0.0V whether or not they came out of the battery.


Energy that moves through an electric circuit is carried by moving?

The answer is Charges


How can a capacitor be charged using a battery charger?

To charge a capacitor using a battery charger, you connect the positive terminal of the battery charger to the positive terminal of the capacitor, and the negative terminal of the battery charger to the negative terminal of the capacitor. The battery charger will then supply a voltage to the capacitor, causing it to store electrical energy.


Does energy flow positive to negative or negative to positive with magnets?

positive to a negative


What is the role of the battery symbol in a circuit diagram?

The battery symbol in a circuit diagram represents a power source that provides electrical energy to the circuit. It shows where the positive and negative terminals of the battery are connected in the circuit, indicating the flow of current from the positive terminal to the negative terminal.


What is such as battery that creates a potential energy difference in a circuit?

A battery creates a potential energy difference by separating positive and negative charges to create a voltage. This voltage difference creates an electric field that drives the flow of charged particles (current) through the circuit.


What does v on a battery stand for?

"V" on a battery typically stands for voltage, which is a measure of the electrical potential difference between the positive and negative terminals of the battery. It indicates the amount of electrical potential energy available to move electrons through a circuit.


What are the functions of the positive and negative terminals in a battery diagram, and how do they contribute to the overall operation of the battery?

The positive terminal in a battery diagram is where electrons flow out, while the negative terminal is where electrons flow in. The positive terminal provides a source of electrons, while the negative terminal accepts electrons, creating a flow of electric current. This flow of electrons is what powers the battery and allows it to provide electrical energy to devices connected to it.
