PHYSICS 19.1-19.2
The charge of an electron is:Negative.
• Two like charges:repel each other.
• Protons are located in the nucleus of the atom.
• A proton has :A positive charge
• Which of these is the electron? A
• What parts of an atom are in the nucleus?Protons and
Neutrons
• Which of the following an insulator?wood
• What types of charges attract?Positive and Negative
• rubber is an ____?insulator
• water is a______? conductor
• Material in which electric charges CANNOT easily
move:electric insulator
• Material in which electric charges easily move:electric
conductor
• Having equal amounts of positive charge and negative
charge:electrically neutral
• An insulator can become charged only by contact
• Providing a path for electric charges to discharge
harmlessly is called grounding
• What is the difference between a conductor and an
insulator?A conductor allows electricity to flow through it
easily and an insulator does not.
• An object that has lost electrons has a positive charge. T
• The two factors that determine the strength of the
electric force between two charged objects are
__________.distance and the amount of charge of the
objects
• What occurs when an object loses an unbalanced electric
charge?electric discharge
• How can objects become electrically charged?If an atom
gains or loses an electron
• Calculate the magnitude of electric force between a
electron and a proton at a distance of r= 5.29 x 10 -11 m
(8.99x10^9)(-1.60x10^-9)( 1.60x10^-9)/(5.29x10^-
11)^2=8.22x10^-8 N
• When an object that was neutral becomes charged. does
the total charge of the universechange? Explain
No. charging of a neutral object does not change the total
charge of the universe If a neutral object is charged with
another charged object the transfer of charge takes place
between them and then the net charge remains constant
Hence, the total charge in the universe remains same.
• Find the net charge of a system consisting of 4.9 × 107
electrons.
• Find the net charge of a system consisting of (a) 6.15 × 10
electrons and 7.44 × 106 protons or (b) 212 electrons and
165 protons.
• How much negative electric charge is contained in 2
moles of carbon?
• Find the total electric charge of 1.5 kg of (a) electrons and
(b) protons.
