Answer:
Work done, W = 0.0219 J
Explanation:
Given that,
Force constant of the spring, k = 290 N/m
Compression in the spring, x = 12.3 mm = 0.0123 m
We need to find the work done to compress a spring. The work done in this way is given by :
W = 0.0219 J
So, the work done by the spring is 0.0219 joules. Hence, this is the required solution.
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.
