What else can I help you with?
Is a neutron a particle that carries a negative charge?
No, a neutron is neutrally charged. A proton is positively charged. And an electron is negatively charged.
What is the net electrostatic force acting on a charged particle located inside a shell of uniform charge?
The net electrostatic force acting on a charged particle located inside a shell of uniform charge is zero. This is because the electric field inside a uniformly charged shell is zero, meaning there are no forces acting on the charged particle from the shell itself.
What force holds electrons and protons in the atom?
Electro-static attraction between a positively charged nucleus and negatively charged electrons.
What is closer to nucleus the stronger the attractive force?
When it is close to the nucleus because the postively charged protons attract the negatively charged electrons
What is the region in which a charged particle still experiences an electric force called?
The region in which a charged particle still experiences an electric force is called the electric field. An electric field is created by charged objects and extends into the space around them, influencing other charged particles within that region. The strength and direction of the electric field can vary depending on the distance from the source charge.
How does an electron exert a force on another charged particle?
An electron exerts a force on another charged particle through the electromagnetic force. This force arises due to the interaction of the electric fields surrounding the charged particles. Like charges repel each other, so electrons (which are negatively charged) repel other negatively charged particles.
What is the relationship between the direction of an electric field and the direction of the force exerted on a charged particle?
The direction of the force exerted on a charged particle is determined by the direction of the electric field. The force acts in the same direction as the electric field if the particle is positively charged, and in the opposite direction if the particle is negatively charged.
What happens to a charged particle placed between two charged plates?
When a charged particle is placed between two charged plates, it will experience a force due to the electric field created by the plates. The particle will move in the direction of the force, either towards the positively charged plate or the negatively charged plate, depending on the charge of the particle and the plates.
Which way will negatively charged particle be deflected by a magnetic field?
A negatively charged particle will be deflected in a direction perpendicular to both its velocity and the magnetic field when moving through the field. This is due to the Lorentz force, which acts on the particle in a direction perpendicular to both its velocity and the magnetic field lines.
Are charged particles the same thing as electrons?
Charged particles can refer to any particle that carries an electric charge, including electrons. Electrons are negatively charged particles that orbit the nucleus of an atom. Other examples of charged particles include protons (positively charged) and ions (atoms with a net electric charge).
For which locations will a charged particle experience zero force?
A charged particle will experience zero force at locations where the electric field is zero.
Is a neutron a particle that carries a negative charge?
No, a neutron is neutrally charged. A proton is positively charged. And an electron is negatively charged.
What must a charged particle be doing in order to experience a magnetic force?
A charged particle must be moving in a magnetic field in order to experience a magnetic force. If the particle is stationary, it will not experience a magnetic force.
What happens when a charged particle moves and experiences no magnetic force?
When a charged particle moves and experiences no magnetic force, it means that either the magnetic field is zero or the magnetic field is perpendicular to the velocity of the charged particle. As a result, the particle will only experience the electric force, causing it to follow a straight path according to the Lorentz force law.
What is lorrenz force?
The Lorentz force is the force experienced by a charged particle moving in an electric and magnetic field. It is perpendicular to both the velocity of the particle and the magnetic field. The Lorentz force can cause the charged particle to curve in its path or experience a change in velocity.
Give you an example of electrical force?
An example of electrical force is the attraction between a positively charged protons and negatively charged electrons within an atom. This force holds the atom together and allows for the formation of molecules and larger structures.
What effect does a magnetic field have on a charged particle?
A magnetic field alters the direction a charged particle is traveling. This is true if the charged particle is moving "across" and not "along" the magnetic lines of force of the field through which it is moving. The particle is said to be deflected when it (the particle) passes through magnetic field lines. The reason for the observed deflection is because a charged particle that is moving creates a magnetic field, and this field will react with the magnetic field through which it is moving. The result will be lateral deflection, and positively charged particles will be deflected one way and negatively charged particles will be deflected the other.
