Question

An electron is placed between two parallel plates connected to a battery. If the battery is switched on , the electron will
A)be attracted to +ve plate
B)be attracted to the -ve plate
C) remain stationary
D)will move parallel to plates

Answer 1

Explanation:Since the electron is stationary and is placed between the plates of the battery, then the plates will have charge of their own. Hence the charge on the pates will make the electron to move. Since being a charge that is negative it will be attracted to the positive charge.

Answer 2

Be attracted to the +ve (positive) plate

Explanation:

• When an electron is placed between two parallel plates connected to a battery. If the battery is switched on, the electron will be attracted to a positive side.
• It is understood that the opposite forces attract each other and the same force repel each other.
• Electrons negatively charged particles by nature.
• Batteries have both positive and negative charge.
• When the battery is switched on, the negatively charged electron will move towards the positive side.
• This is similar to the magnet concept, that the north pole -north pole and south pole - south pole repel each other, but the north - south and south - north pole attract each other.
