Question

A common unit used to measure the energy of small particles is the electron volt (eV), which is equal to the magnitude of the charge on the electron (measured in coulombs C) multiplied by 1 volt (V). In chapter 17, you will learn coulombs multiplied by volts is equivalent to mass multiplied by length squared and divided by time squared. that 1) Which of the following quantities could be written in eV? Case A: Gravitational potential energy mgh, where m is the mass of the object, g is the acceleration due to gravity (length divided by time squared), and h is the height of the object measured with respect to a reference position. Case B: Electric potential energy qAV, where q is the charge of the particle in coulombs and AV is the potential difference in volts through which the particle is being accelerated. Case C: Rest energy me2, where m is the mass of the object, and c is the speed of light (length divided by time). Case A Case B Case C Case A and Case B Case A and Case C Case B and Case C OAll of them Submit (Survey Question) 2) Briefly explain your answer to the previous question Submit

Answer 1

Energy in case B and C is generally written in eV because in theses two cases energy is very less
