Which of the following is a scalar quantity?

None of the above - all are vectors

Assuming the proton was held at 1.0 m away from the fixed charge and then moved 2.0 m away upon being released, we would say that the electric potential energy was:

Negative because the charges do the work of moving apart naturally

Positive because we would have to force it to move that way

Negative because the charge is moving farther away

Positive because both charges are positive

Electrical conductors...

Allow electrons to flow through them

Prevent electrons from flowing through them

Allow protons to flow through them

Allow both protons and electrons to flow through them

Electrical insulators...

Prevent electrons from flowing through them

Allow protons to flow through them

Allow electrons to flow through them

Allow both protons and electrons to flow through them

Which of the following statements are true regarding electrical potential energy? Select all that apply.

It takes work to make charges go against what they would normally do

It's considered negative work when charges move the way they're supposed to

Electric potential energy is measured in Volts

Electric potential energy is a scalar quantity

During a physics lab, a plastic rod was rubbed with animal fur and became positively charged. The correct explanation for why the plastic rod becomes positively charged is that...

The plastic rod lost electrons to the fur when they were rubbed together

The plastic rod acquired extra protons from the fur

The plastic rod acquired extra protons from the air after being rubbed

Protons were created as the result of the rod and fur rubbing against each other
