|
What was does a electric field travel in a uniform field? |
From positive to negative |
|
|
What charge is on electrons and protons? |
Electrons are negatively charged while protons are positively charged. |
|
|
What is the symbol for electric field strength and what is it measured in? |
E and it is measured in V m-1 |
|
|
What is the principle of conservation of energy? |
When a electric field does work on a particle it causes the particle to lose electrical and gain kinetic. |
|
|
Why does a particle change its path depending on how large its charge is? |
It does this because of the interchangeable formula of Centripetal force and F=BIL, switch the force out of the equation and it gives the new radius a larger or smaller radius depending on how large the charge is. |
|
|
What way would a positively charge particle travel in a magnetic field? |
From north to south and therefore the negatively charged particle, for example, an electron would travel to the south first. |
|
|
When calculating individual current, what must you remember? |
To minus any current you're working out off the total current. |
