Select the correct location on the image. Identify the magnetic north pole of Earth’s magnet.
1 answer:
The magnetic north pole of the earth's magnet is in the geographic south pole.
- There are two magnetic and geographic poles each, north and south
- The two geographic poles are the locations where the earth's axis of rotation passes through which is imaginary
- The magnetic north and south poles are not the same as the geographic north and south poles
- In a compass, the needle points to the magnetic north pole
- By convention, the magnetic north pole corresponds to the geographic south pole
- The magnetic south pole corresponds to the geographic north pole
- The magnetic field lines of a magnet start from the magnetic north pole and end at the magnetic south pole
The magnetic north pole of the earth's magnet is the geographic south pole.

Answer:
Electric potential energy at the negative terminal:
Explanation:
When a particle with charge travels across a potential difference
, then its change in electric potential energy is
In this problem, we know that:
The particle is an electron, so its charge is
We also know that the positive terminal is at potential
While the negative terminal is at potential
Therefore, the potential difference (final minus initial) is
So, the change in potential energy of the electron is
This means that the electron when it is at the negative terminal has of energy more than when it is at the positive terminal.
Since the potential at the positive terminal is 0, this means that the electric potential energy of the electron at the negative end is
