Question

the size of nucleus can be estimated by the scattering of which particles​

Answer 1

Answer:

We can calculate the size of the nucleus, by obtaining the point of closest

approach of an alpha particle. By shooting alpha particles of kinetic energy

5.5 MeV, the point of closest approach was estimated to be about 4×10-14m.

Since the repulsive force acting here is Coulomb repulsion, there is no

contact.

Answer 2

Answer:

The size of nucleaus can be estimated by the scattering of alpha particles.
