The work W done by the electric field in moving the proton is equal to the difference in electric potential energy of the proton between its initial location and its final location, therefore:
W= qV_i - qV_f
where q is the charge of the proton, q=1 e = 1.6\cdot 10^{-19}C, with e being the elementary charge, and V_i = +125 V and V_f = -55 V are the initial and final voltage.

Substituting, we get (in electronvolts):
W=e(125 V-(-55 V))=180 eV
and in Joule:
W=(1.6 \cdot 10^{-19})(125 V-(-55V))=2.88 \cdot 10^{-17}J

Answer:

These forces are all equal and cancel each other out. Gravity pushes downward on the ice cream. This can also be called the weight of the ice cream. Buoyant force pushes the ice cream upward

Tpy6a [65]
Current will be I=\dfrac{V_{rms}}{Z}=\dfrac{V_{rms}}{\sqrt{ R^{2}+(X_{C}-X_{L})^{2}}}\\where~X_{c}=\dfrac{1}{j.\omega .C}~and~X_{L}=j.\omega.L~where~\omega=2.\pi f~and~f=60Hz
now just pluf in the values and Voila..

A transfer of charge is actually a gross movement of
son4ous [18]
A transfer of charge is actually a gross movement of electrons. Charged objects have a normal or "balanced" state. This state is balanced in a sense of positive charges (protons) and negative charges (electrons). When an object has an excess of deficiency of electrons, it will try to regain its balance by releasing or accepting electrons.
