Charge flows from low potential to high potential. O True or O False

Physics
1 answer:
inn [45]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

False

Explanation:

Think of the electric potential in terms of potential energy. If you imagine a place with high elevation (A) and another one at sea level (B), a ball will roll from high potential to low potential (A-->B).

Everything in our universe wants to reach a lower state of energy if no external force is acted upon it. Every object tends to slow down (friction), a radioactive element dissipates energy (an unstable element releases energy to get to a stable state), water in the clouds comes down to the ground (rain experiencing difference in potential energy).

Electric potential is exactly the same, you just can't see it! It flows from higher voltage (which is a synonym for electric potential) to lower voltage.

Alex

Answer:

Option 3 is the correct option to the following question.

Explanation:

Double slit experiment:

The double-slit experiment in modern physics reveals that light and matter can exhibit characteristics of both classically described waves and particles; it also shows the inherently probabilistic existence of quantum mechanical phenomena.  

When two wavelength meets ,if the resultant amplitude is maximum then this is known as constructive interference and the resultant amplitude is maximum then this is known as destructive interference.

Therefore the answer is "3".

A charged particle moving along the +x-axis enters a uniform magnetic field pointing along the +z-axis. A uniform electric field
Brums [2.3K]

Answer:

the electric field direction should be in positive y axis

Explanation:

Lets assume that charge on particle is positive and it isequal to +q

First calculate the magnetic force on it

F_B = q V\times B =qVBsin\theta

for direction

use Right Hand Rule which will give the direction and by using his the direction will come towards negative y axis.

As given in the question that charge particle does not change their velocity so we need to apply electric field in such a way that electric force direction should be opposite to the magnectic field.

and magnitude should be same as magnectic force and also direcion of electric force depend on the direction of elecric field when charge is positive because electric force F_E = qE

Hence the electric field direction should be in positive y axis

3.- Un barco que tiene el motor averiado es ayudado por dos remolcadores para entrar en el puerto. Cada uno de ellos tira de él
Cerrena [4.2K]

Answer:

F_total = 10000 N

Explanation:

For this exercise we use that the force is a vector and the best way to do the sum is that since the two tugs pull the boat with the same intensity and angle, the sum of the component of the force perpendicular to the movement becomes zero.

The components parallel to the movement of the tugs is

            ∑ F = 2 Fcos θ

let's calculate

           F_total = 2 10000 cos 60

           F_total = 10000 N
