JEE Mains · Physics · STD 12 - 13. Nuclei

7.9 MeV \( \alpha \)-particle scatters from a target material of atomic number 79. From the given data the estimated diameter of nuclei of the target material is (approximately) __________m.
\(\left[\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0}=9 \times 10^9 Nm ^2 / C ^2\right.\) and electron charge \(\left.=1.6 \times 10^{-19} C \right]\)

  1. A \( 5.76\times10^{-14} \)
  2. B \( 1.44\times10^{-13} \)
  3. C \( 2.88\times10^{-14} \)
  4. D \( 1.69\times10^{-12} \)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \( 5.76\times10^{-14} \)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

By mechanical energy conservation \(( Me )_{ i }=( Me )_{ f }\) \(P E_i+K E_i=P E_f+K E_f\) \(0+7.9 \times 10^6 \times 1.6 \times 10^{-19}=\frac{ k (2 e )( Ze )}{ r }+0\)…
