    1) The charge on one electron or proton is 1.6 x 10^-19 coulombs. This means that in one coulomb of charge there are 1/1.6 x 10^-19 electrons or protons. 2) Protons are able to exist close together in the nucleus despite their positive charges because they experience both an electrostatic repulsive force and a strong nuclear attractive force. 3) Potential at a point is defined as the work done per unit charge to move a charge from infinity to that point against the force of electrostatic repulsion. Potential difference is the work done per unit charge to move a charge between two points.

    How much charge on one electron or proton

    1.6 x 10^-19 coloumbs


    in one c = 1/1.6 x 10^-19 electrons are present

    Q. why arent the protons repelling each other??

    Electrstatic force of repulsion


    Nuclear force of attraction

    Two like charges always repell each other

    one BIG positive charge and a unit positive charge(UPC)


    When brought together Force of repulsion causes the unit positive charge to move
    away

    the UPC is forced against the force of repulsion


    work is done against the force of repulsion

    Potential at a Point:-
    The amount of work done is moving a positive charge from infinity to the point
    against the force of repulsion is called as potential at that point

    Potential Difference:-
    The amount of work done in moving a unit positive cahrge fromone point to another
    against the force of repulsion is called potential difference

    Potential Difference
    is denoted by (V)
    voltage
    Unit of Potential difference = volts
    1 volt
    V = 12 V
    Voltage = 12 Volts
