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 potential energy is most often referred to as the "energy at rest" and is dependent on the elevation of an object. This can be calculated through the equation,
E = mgh
where E is the potential energy, m is the mass, g is the acceleration due to gravity, and h is the height. In this item, we are not given with the mass of the cart so we assume it to be m. The force is therefore,
E = m(9.8 m/s²)(0.5 m) = 4.9m
Hence, the potential energy is equal to 4.9m.
Answer:
R₂ / R₁ = D / L
Explanation:
The resistance of a metal is
R = ρ L / A
Where ρ is the resistivity of aluminum, L is the length of the resistance and A its cross section
We apply this formal to both configurations
Small face measurements (W W)
The length is
L = W
Area
A = W W = W²
R₁ = ρ W / W² = ρ / W
Large face measurements (D L)
Length L = D= 2W
Area A = W L
R₂ = ρ D / WL = ρ 2W / W L = 2 ρ/L
The relationship is
R₂ / R₁ = 2W²/L
