Hello guys , am a new to high school physics and chemistry.
I have several questions about electric current , atoms etc.
Okay so here it goes..
1. What is electric potential and potential difference in simple language ?
I heard that there are charges in metals and conductors.
2. What makes these charges flow when connected to a battery ?
3. What is electromotive force ?
It is said that Proton has a positive charge , Electron has a negative charge. Neutron has no charge.
4. Is it true that proton + electron = neutron considering +1-1=0 ?
5. What does an "unstable nuclei" mean ? I heard that only unstable elements
are radioactive. Is it true ? If yes , how ?
During a beta decay , a neutron converts itself into a proton and an electron ,
and the electron is used for the beta ray and the proton gets added to the
nucleus. I heard that even after beta decay , the no. of neutrons remain the
same as before beta decay.
6. Is this true ? If yes , from where did the extra neutron
which converted itself to proton and electron come from ?
And how does a neutron convert itself into a proton and an electron ?
Please make your language as simple as possible as am new to it.
I have many more questions in mind . I have a lot of interest in these subjects , but it is
that am just new to it. Please help me , am looking for answers.
Thanks.
