- Alpha particles of energy 7 MeV are incident from a gold foil in a scattering experiment.
- Plot the electrostatic potential seen by the alpha particlesFind the closest distance an alpha particle can reach to the nucleus assuming that initially the alpha particle was on a direct collision course with the gold nucleus.
How will your answers change if the positive charge of the gold nucleus is assumed to be uniformly distributed over a sphere of radius of a few Angstroms, as was proposed in Thompson model?
