Answer:

The electron releases energy as it moves to a lower energy level.- last choice

An "excited state" is a condition where the electron has MORE energy.  The "ground state" is the lowest energy level, where the electron has the minimum possible energy.

So, when an electron moves from an excited state to the ground state, it loses energy.  The electron <em>releases energy</em> as it moves to <em>the lowest energy level</em>.

<em>(last choice)</em>

How are force and motion related
sp2606 [1]
Force is used to put things in motion you can’t have motion without force!
Even if it just pushing a piece of paper you still use force to put the paper in motion!

Which statements describe a fully charged capacitor? Check all that apply.
Oksanka [162]
Well, first of all, there's no such thing as "fully charged" for a capacitor.

A capacitor has a "maximum working voltage", because of mechanical
or chemical reasons, just like a car has a maximum safe speed.  But
anywhere below that, cars and capacitors do their jobs just fine, without
any risk of failing.

So we have a capacitor that has some charge on it, and therefore some
voltage across it.  From the list of choices above . . .

<span>-- Both plates have the same amount of charge.
Yes.  And both plates have opposite TYPES of charge.
One plate is loaded with electrons and is negatively charged.
The other plate is missing electrons and is positively charged.

-- There is a potential difference between the plates.
Yes.  That's the "voltage" mentioned earlier.
It's a measure of how badly the extra electrons want to jump
from the negative plate to the positive plate.

-- Electric potential energy is stored.
Yes.  It's the energy that had to be put into the capacitor
to move electrons away from one plate and cram them
onto the other plate.
