You are conducting your own Rutherford scattering experiment in lab by scattering 5.5 MeV α-particles off of gold foil. You detector can detect a maximum of 2000 particles/sec. If you want to design your experiment such that you detect at least 1 particle/sec at a scattering angle of 50°, will you be able to use the same detector to measure the count rate at a scattering angle of 6°? Explain your answer in complete sentences with data/calculations to back up your claim.

In a Rutherford scattering experiment, an α-particle (charge = +2.00e) heads directly toward a gold nucleus (charge = +79.0e). The α-particle had a kinetic energy of 7.95 MeV when very far (r → ∞) from the nucleus. Assuming the gold nucleus to be fixed in space, determine the distance of closest approach. (Hint: Use conservation of energy with PE=keq1q2/r).

4. + ㅢ1 points My Notes Ask Your Teacher In 1910 Rutherford performed a classic experiment in which he directed a beam of alpha particles at a thin gold foil. He unexpectedly observed a few of the particles scattered almost directly backward. This result was not consistent with then current models of atomic structure and led Rutherford to propose the existence of a very dense concentration of positive charge at the center of an atom-the atomic nucleus. The alpha particle...

Use the following information to answer the next question. In the Rutherford alpha particle scattering experiment, some alpha particles were deflected coming straight back from the gold foil. When an alpha particle is emitted by the radium sample, it has a kinetic energy of 1.0 x 10-22 J. The electric potential energy of a charged particle in a radial electric field is modelled as kq192 Ер r Numerical Response 2. The maximum acceleration of an alpha particle at its closest...

Hello! Could you please write your own four paragraph (5-6 sentences per paragraph) take away or reflection of the below information? Please complete in 24 hours if possible. Thank you! RIS BOHNET THINKS firms are wasting their money on diversity training. The problem is, most programs just don’t work. Rather than run more workshops or try to eradicate the biases that cause discrimination, she says, companies need to redesign their processes to prevent biased choices in the first place. Bohnet...
