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.


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 proton electric charge?

A proton has a positive electrical charge and an electron has a negative electrical charge.


What is the relationship between the anode, cathode, positive, and negative terminals in an electrical circuit?

In an electrical circuit, the anode is the positive terminal and the cathode is the negative terminal. The flow of electric current goes from the anode to the cathode.


What is the conventional theory of electricity?

Conventional Electrical theory (simplified) states that electricity flows from positive to negative in contrast to Electron Theory which supposes negative to positive flow of electrons.


Use the analogy of a battery as having positive and negative poles the contrast between two poles of a neuron is called?

The contrast between the two poles of a neuron is called polarization. Just like a battery has positive and negative poles that create an electrical potential difference, a neuron's polarization refers to the difference in electric charge between its dendrites and axon. This difference in charge allows for the transmission of electrical impulses along the neuron.


What is the type of charge produced when an electric field separates positive and negative charge?

The type of charge produced when an electric field separates positive and negative charge is an electric potential difference, commonly referred to as voltage. This voltage creates an electrical force that causes the positive and negative charges to move in opposite directions.


In which direction do electric field points from positive to negative?

The electric field points from positive to negative.


How does an electric system transmit energy due to the movement of electric charges?

Positive and negative electrical charges atract each other, cause movement


Are in excess at the negative terminal of an electric cell?

In an electric cell, there are excess electrons at the negative terminal. This accumulation of electrons creates a negative charge, which leads to a potential difference between the negative and positive terminals. When a circuit is completed, the electrons flow from the negative terminal to the positive terminal, providing electric current. This movement of electrons is what powers electrical devices connected to the cell.


What type of electrical current does a battery produce?

A battery produces direct current (DC) because the flow of electric charge is unidirectional, from the positive terminal to the negative terminal. This is in contrast to alternating current (AC), which changes direction periodically.


What type of energy is carried by moving negative charges?

That is the electric energy. It is called the electricity
