\(\sqrt{d_{1}}\) and \(\sqrt{d_{2}}\) are the impact parameters corresponding to scattering angles \(60^{\circ}\) and \(90^{\circ}\) respectively, when an \(\alpha\) particle is approaching a gold nucleus. For \(d_{1}=x d_{2}\), the value of \(x\) will be ________

  1. A \(3\)
  2. B \(4\)
  3. C \(5\)
  4. D \(7\)
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(A) \(3\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation
