What scientist shot alpha particles into gold

Physics

The scientist that shot alpha particles into gold was Earnest Rutherford. He discovered about electrons. Then, later, he tried to prove that atoms had neutrons. This was done with his gold foil experiment. When the atoms were shot and hit the nucleus, they bounced back... that is how he found out that the atoms had a nucleus, also where our nuclear structure of an atom comes from...

Hope this helps;)

The Geiger–Marsden experiment(s) (also called the Rutherford gold foil experiment) were a landmark series of experiments by which scientists discovered that every atom contains a nucleus where its positive charge and most of its mass are concentrated

When an object with a negative charge is moved from point A to point B through an external electrical field, it gains electrical
Sergio039 [100]

Explanation:

As per the problem,

           \Delta U = (V_{B} - V_{A})(-q) > 0

When q > 0 then -q is a negative charge . Since, change in potential energy (\Delta U) increases.

or,     (V_{A} - V_{B})q > 0

or,      V_{A} > V_{B}

Therefore, both positive and negative charge will move from V_{A} to V_{B} and as V_{B} < V_{A} so both of them move through a negative potential difference.

Thus, we can conclude that the true statements are as follows.

  • The positively charged object moves through a negative potential difference between A and B (that is, VB - VA < 0).
  • The negatively charged object moves through a negative potential difference between A and B (that is, VB - VA < 0).

How do mass and force affect the acceleration of an object?
joja [24]

Gravity affects weight, it does not affect mass. Masses always remain the same. Newton's Second Law of Motion: Force = mass x acceleration The acceleration of an object is: a) directly proportional to the net force acting on the object. ... c) inversely proportional to the mass of the object.
