Thanks for the replies, I should rephrase my question. The positive or negative sign in displacement in the oscillation depends on what? For example, a pendulum that oscillates vertically, how do we give the positive or negative? Is it based on the direction like upwards positive and downwards...
Hi,good morning. I encountered a problem regarding simple harmonic motion. I have seen the graphs of displacement, velocity and acceleration in an oscillation. How to determine the Direction of displacement,velocity and acceleration in an oscillation? I really have no idea
Thanks
I think maybe my basic is not strong enough. Correct me if I am wrong. The electric field direction is from positive to negative right? So the electron need to do work to go to the positive plate. Am i right?
Hi,im new here. Can you explain to me what happens to the kinetic energy of an electron when it is accelerated in a uniform electric field? My guess is it will go to the positive plate and loses kinetic energy because it isdoing work against the field. Can anyone clarify this?
Thanks
