Question

Two negative charges sit in between two large charged sheets as shown in the figure. Which of the charges has the most electric potential energy? Charge A Charge B They have the same non-zero electric potential energy They both have zero electric potential energy Explain your answer: A proton is released from rest at the dot. Afterward, the proton remains at the dot +50v moves upward with steady speed moves upward with an increasing speed moves downward with a steady speed moves downward with an increasing speed 50 v

Explanation / Answer

8

Both the charges are under same magnitude of electric potential. as the charges are identical, the potential energy of the two charges is same. thus, the option (c) is correct answer.

9

the electric field points from the positive potential region to negative potential energy region. the electrostatic force acts on the proton along the direction of electric field. so, the proton accelerates towards negative potential region. thus, the answer is option E.
