Problem
A proton passes sequentially through three regions where the electric potential changes by +5.0V, then −12.0V, and finally +7.0V.
(a) Calculate the net electric potential difference experienced by the proton.
(b) Determine the net change in the proton's electric potential energy, expressing your answer both in electron-volts and in joules.
