Question

A beam of -particles of velocity  is scattered by a gold (Z = 79) foil. Find out the distance closest approach of the -particle to the gold nucleus. The value of charge/mass for -particle is .

Solution

Correct option is

When the -particle reaches the nucleus to the closest distance r0, whole of its kinetic energy  is converted into electrostatic potential energy . Then  

              

   

Substituting the given values : 

    

         .
