How do a proton and an electron compared?
They have opposite charges.
How is proton and electron alike?
Both have equal and opposite charges.
A proton has a what?
A proton has a positive charge.
What is a good comparison of the charges of an electron and the charges of a proton?
They are equal in magnitude but opposite in charge.
What happens if a free electron and a free proton are put into an electric field?
The proton will have greater acceleration. This is because the proton has a higher charge to mass ratio than the alpha particle. The proton has a +1 charge, as you know, and the alpha particle has a +2 charge because it has 2 protons in it. But the alpha particle also has a pair of neutrons fuesed to those 2 protons, so it has a 2 to 4 charge to mass ratio. The proton, with its 1 to 1 ratio of charge to mass, will have a greater acceleration in the same electric field.
What proton has a charge that is opposite the charge of?
An electron? No, the Anti-proton is the negative charged opposite of the positively charged Proton.
What is the difference in the amount of charges in a proton and electron?
A proton and an electron have exactly opposite charges. If you take the charge of a proton as +1, then an electron has a charge of -1.
How do a proton and an electron compared?
They have opposite charges.
Are the charges of protons and electrons opposite and equal?
Yes, a proton is a subatomic particle that carries a charge equal to but opposite to that of an electron. The proton has a positive charge, and the electron has a negative charge.
What is the electric charge does proton have in electron?
A proton has a positive charge which is equal in magnitude but opposite to the charge on an electron, which is negative.
How is proton and electron alike?
Both have equal and opposite charges.
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.
Does charge of proton and elactron are equal?
The charge of the proton is +1. The charge of the electron is -1. They are equal but opposite.
Are an electron and a proton attracted or repelled?
They are attracted because they have opposite charges.
Can you generate the electricity by the moving of proton as electron?
No. While the proton has the opposite charge of the electron, the proton will not flow from atom to atom like the electron does because the strong atomic force holding the proton in the nucleus is much more powerful than the electromagnetic force.
Is a proton or a neutron the opposite of an electron?
Protons and electrons have opposite charges. Neutrons, as the name implies, are neutral.
How many electrons can balance with the 1 proton?
One electron balances the charge on one proton. Their charges are equal and opposite.
