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.
Answer:
v₃ = 3.33 [m/s]
Explanation:
This problem can be easily solved using the principle of linear momentum conservation. Which tells us that momentum is preserved before and after the collision.
In this way, we can propose the following equation in which everything that happens before the collision will be located to the left of the equal sign and on the right the moment after the collision.
where:
m₁ = mass of the car = 1000 [kg]
v₁ = velocity of the car = 10 [m/s]
m₂ = mass of the truck = 2000 [kg]
v₂ = velocity of the truck = 0 (stationary)
v₃ = velocity of the two vehicles after the collision [m/s].
Now replacing:
