Potential Difference Notes
... where V is measured in Volts or Joules/Coulomb Note that electric potential is a scalar quantity, much like potential energy. Its magnitude depends on: the size of the charge Q you are examining; the sign of the charge (+ or -); the location away from the charge, i.e., distance R. A similar ...

... A common misperception is that astronauts are not subject to the force of gravity during space flight. In reality, for missions orbiting the earth, astronauts are subject to a force of gravity that is only slightly less than what they would experience on the earth’s surface. Why, then, do they appea ...
