What happens to the potential energy of a stationary charge when it begins to move freely from one point to another under the influence of an electric field?

The potential energy of the particle goes down just as its kinetic energy, which results from the particle's increasing motion, increases - thereby conserving the total energy of the system. Of course these terms refer ONLY to the potential energy due to the charged particle's presence in an electric field and its change in motion in the direction of that field. If there were also a gravitational field present and the particle had mass, it would have also have potential (and kinetic, if it's falling too) energy from that field, independently of the electric field.


What is the final charge on each object?

The final charge on each object is the sum of their individual charges, taking into account their signs. If they have the same charge, their magnitudes will add up; if they have opposite charges, their magnitudes will subtract.


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.


What is the electric field at a point outside a nonuniform semicircle of charge?

The electric field at a point outside a nonuniform semicircle of charge is not constant and varies depending on the distribution of charge along the semicircle. The electric field can be calculated using the principle of superposition, taking into account the contributions from each element of charge along the semicircle. The direction and magnitude of the electric field at a specific point can be determined by integrating the contributions of all the charge elements.


What is the formula for calculating the electric flux through a surface due to a point charge, taking into account the permittivity of free space, represented by the symbol epsilon naught?

The formula for calculating the electric flux through a surface due to a point charge is given by q / , where is the electric flux, q is the charge, and is the permittivity of free space.

What is the plot of the charge on a capacitor versus time?

That will depend on whether you are adding charge to it or taking charge away.


Is the effective nuclear charge equivalent to the number of valence electrons in an atom?

No, the effective nuclear charge is not equivalent to the number of valence electrons in an atom. The effective nuclear charge is the net positive charge experienced by an electron in a multi-electron atom, taking into account the shielding effect of inner electrons. Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom that are involved in bonding.


Why does an ion have an charge?

In Ionic bonding, ions can become charged by giving or taking electrons. Ions are always trying to have a full outer shell of electrons because that makes them stable. Therefore, in the compound sodium chloride (NaCl or Table Salt) sodium loses one electron to chlorine. Therefore the sodium has a + charge, because it has one more proton than electron. The chlorine has a - charge because it has one more electron than proton.

What happens to the charge of an atom if you take one electron away?

If you take away one electron from an atom, the atom becomes positively charged. This is because electrons carry a negative charge, so removing one electron leaves the atom with a net positive charge. The atom is then called a cation, as it has more protons (positive charges) than electrons.

How to find the Oxidation and reduction?

oxidation is the taking away of an electron, while reduction is gaining and electron


How is atoms different from ions?

Atoms are neutral particles that contain an equal number of protons and electrons. Ions are charged particles that have gained or lost electrons, resulting in an imbalance of protons and electrons. This charge difference gives ions unique chemical properties compared to atoms.


Is area adding or taking away?

Area is length x width, so is not adding or taking away When you need to find the total of 2 areas, you have to add them

If your dentist took an impression of your teeth before putting in a crown but you did not have the whole procedure done is it legal for your dentist to charge you for a crown and all it entails?

Did you sign an agreement for the procedure? In my experience the impressions are made after the dentist has already built the core and installed a temporary crown. They usually order the permanent crown at that time, which they pay for. So the charge is justified. If this is not the case they should only be allowed to charge for the actual work done (office visit and taking the impression).
