Potential energy=K(q1q2)/r
The product of q1 and q2 is negative.
So on bringing closer Potential energy decreases.
a proton and an electron, initially separated by a distance r, and brought closer together. how...
If potential energy increases as like charges are brought closer together, why wouldn't the work done be negative? I thought work was defined as the negative of the change in potential energy.
A proton and an electron are separated by a distance of 1.71 x 10 15 m. What is the magnitude of the electrostatic force between them? (Disclaimer: this is much closer than these two particles would actually get in real life)
1) What is the electrostatic potential energy (in joules) between an electron and a proton that are separated by 56 pm? 2) What is the change in potential energy if the distance separating the electron and proton is increased to 1.0 nm?
An electron and a proton are a distance r = 2 × 10-9 m apart. How much energy is required to increase their separation by a factor of 9?
1) (a) Calculate the electric potential energy (in terms of eV) of a pair of proton that separated by a distance of 6 x 10-12m. (b) Calculate the electric potential energy (in terms of eV) of a system that consist of an electron and proton separated by a distance of 7.5 x 10-1°m (c) A proton is initially at rest, it is then accelerated through a potential difference of 24kv. Calculate its final speed. (10 Points)
