A source of emf is connected by wires to a resistor, and electrons flow in the circuit. The wire diameter is the same throughout the circuit. Compared to the potential energy of an electron before entering the source of emf, the potential energy of an electron after leaving the source of emf is

Respuesta :

Answer

The potential energy is  less

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The  source of  the emf is  by wires to a resistor.

Now  the potential energy of electron before leaving the source emf will be greater than the potential energy of an electron after leaving the source of emf because the resistor connected to the source emf will reduced the potential energy as it will convert some of the energy to heat

The potential energy of an electron after leaving the source of emf is lesser.

What is electro motive force?

Electro motive force is the voltage or potential difference of an electrical energy device such as battery.

The  source of  the emf is  by wires to a resistor.Now,  the potential energy of an electron before leaving the source emf will be greater than the potential energy of an electron.

After leaving the source of emf because the resistor connected to the source of emf will reduce the potential energy as it will convert some of the energy to heat.

Thus the potential energy of an electron after leaving the source of emf is lesser.
