In 1911, Ernest Rutherford and his assistants Geiger and Marsden conducted an experiment in which they scattered alpha particles (nuclei of helium atoms) from thin sheets of gold. An alpha particle, having charge +2e and mass 6.64 10-27 kg, is a product of certain radioactive decay's. The results of the experiment led Rutherford to the idea that most of an atoms mass is in a very small nucleus, with electrons in orbit around it. (This is the planetary model of the atom, which well study in Chapter 42.) Assume an alpha particle, initially very far from a stationary gold nucleus, is fired with a velocity of 2.00 107 m/s directly toward the nucleus (charge +79e). What is the smallest distance between the alpha particle and the nucleus before the alpha particle reverses direction? Assume the gold nucleus remains stationary.

Nobel laureate Richard Feynman (19181088) once said that if two persons stood at arms length from each other and each person had 1% more electrons than protons, the force of repulsion between them would be enough to lift a weight equal to that of the entire Earth. Carry out an order-of-magnitude calculation to substantiate this assertion.

In the Millikan oil-drop experiment illustrated in Figure 15.21, an atomizer (a sprayer with a fine nozzle) is used to introduce many tiny droplets of oil between two oppositely charged parallel metal plates. Some of the droplets pick up one or more excess electrons. The charge on the plates is adjusted so that the electric force on the excess electrons exactly balances the weight of the droplet. The idea is to look for a droplet dial has the smallest electric force and assume it has only one excess electron. This strategy lets the observer measure the charge on the electron. Suppose we are using an electric field of 3 104 N/C. The charge on one electron is about 1.6 1019 C. Estimate the radius of an oil drop of density 858 kg/m5 for which its weight could be balanced by the electric force of this field on one electron. (Problem 42 is courtesy of E.F. Redish.

The liquid-drop model of the atomic nucleus suggests high-energy oscillations of certain nuclei can split the nucleus into two unequal fragments plus a few neutrons. The fission products acquire kinetic energy from their mutual Coulomb repulsion. Assume the charge is distributed uniformly throughout the volume of each spherical fragment and. immediately before separating each fragment is at rest and their surfaces are in contact. The electrons surrounding the nucleus can be ignored. Calculate the electric potential energy (in electron volts) of two spherical fragments from a uranium nucleus having the following charges and radii: 38e and 5.50 10-15 m. and 54e and 6.20 10-15 m.
