Answer:
(1) passed through the foil
Explanation:
Ernest Rutherford conducted an experiment using an alpha particle emitter projected towards a gold foil and the gold foil was surrounded by a fluorescent screen which glows upon being struck by an alpha particle.
- When the experiment was conducted he found that most of the alpha particles went away without any deflection (due to the empty space) glowing the fluorescent screen right at the point of from where they were emitted.
- While a few were deflected at reflex angle because they were directed towards the center of the nucleus having the net effective charge as positive.
- And some were acutely deflected due to the field effect of the positive charge of the proton inside the nucleus. All these conclusions were made based upon the spot of glow on the fluorescent screen.
the force that the planet exerts on the moon is equal to the force that the moon exerts on the planet
Explanation:
In this problem we are analzying the gravitational force acting between a planet and its moon.
The magnitude of the gravitational attraction between two objects is given by
where :
is the gravitational constant
m1, m2 are the masses of the two objects
r is the separation between them
In this problem, we are considering a planet and its moon. According to Newton's third law of motion,
"When an object A exerts a force (action force) on an object B, then object B exerts an equal and opposite force (reaction force) on object A"
If we apply this law to this situation, this means that the force that the planet exerts on the moon is equal to the force that the moon exerts on the planet.
