They hit positive charges in the gold atoms.
As alpha particles are positively charged particles, they will experience repulsion force as soon as they approach positive charges in the center of the atom (in the nucleus).
Also remember that back at Rutherford time, they did not have the right visualization of the atom, they had a model of it like if it was a budding of positive charges and the negative charges are put into them. So this experiment gave a really better and more reliable imagination of the atom structure.

Hope this helps.

How is the direction of current defined by convention
ddd [48]

Answer: The direction of an electric current is by convention the direction in which a positive charge would move. Thus, the current in the external circuit is directed away from the positive terminal and toward the negative terminal of the battery. Electrons would actually move through the wires in the opposite direction.

Name the three strata of study within the study of kinesiology define each and provide examples
Ket [755]
The three strata of study within the study of kinesiology are:
1. Core scientific domain: the core scientific domain deals with the sub disciplines that are found in kinesiology. Examples of these sub disciplines are biomechanics, sport medicine, exercise physiology, history of sport and dance, neurophysiology of performance, physiology of sport, sociology of sport, etc. 
2. Sociocultural based form of movement: this aspect of kinesiology deals with the different types of games, sport and dance that are practised in different cultures and countries. The aspect studies expert skills that are involved in different sociocultural based movements. Examples of sociocultural based movements are aquatics, combative, individual sport, running, etc.
3.  Methods in professional application: these deals with the professional training and careers that are available in kinesiology. There are generally five areas of professional training, they are: capacity building, management and administration, performance enhancement, instruction in physical education and research.

Cora, an electrician, wraps a copper wire with a thick plastic coating. What is she most likely trying to do?
larisa86 [58]
The correct answer among the choices given is the last option. Cora wrapping the copper wire with a thick plastic coating keeps a current from passing out a wire. The plastic wire here serves as an insulator. An insulator is a material that prevents electricity or current to flow out the circuit. In order to lessen the loss of energy.
