The work done by the electric field in moving a charge is the negative of the potential energy difference between the two locations, which is the product between the magnitude of the charge q and the potential difference
:
The proton charge is
, and the two locations have potential of
and
, therefore the work is
Answer:
B) electrons transferred from sphere to rod.
(2) 1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons were transferred
Explanation:
Given;
initial charge on the plastic rod, q₁ = 15nC
final charge on the plastic rod, q₂ = - 5nC
let the charge acquired by the plastic rod = q
q + 15nC = -5nC
q = -5nC - 15nC
q = -20 nC
Thus, the plastic rod acquired excess negative charge from the metal sphere.
Hence, electrons transferred from sphere to rod
B) electrons transferred from sphere to rod.
2) How many charged particles were transferred?
1.602 x 10⁻¹⁹ C = 1 electron
20 x 10⁻⁹ C = ?
= 1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons
Thus,1.248 x 10¹¹ electrons were transferred
