Sovereignty is an attribute of states that is both an idea and a reality of state power. It is one of the means, an important one, by which the government of a state seeks to ensure the best it possibly can for its people. As such, it also changes over time.

A proton has been accelerated from rest through a potential difference of -1000 v . part a what is the proton's kinetic energy,

wlad13 [49]

We can apply the law of conservation of energy here. The total energy of the proton must remain constant, so the sum of the variation of electric potential energy and of kinetic energy of the proton must be zero:
$\Delta U + \Delta K=0$
which means
$\Delta K = - \Delta U$
The variation of electric potential energy is equal to the product between the charge of the proton (q=1eV) and the potential difference ( $\Delta V=-1000 V$ ):
$\Delta U = q \Delta V=(1 eV)(-1000 V)=-1000 eV$
Therefore, the kinetic energy gained by the proton is
$\Delta K = -(-1000 eV)=1000 eV$
<span>And since the initial kinetic energy of the proton was zero (it started from rest), then this 1000 eV corresponds to the final kinetic energy of the proton.</span>
