Constants A gold nucleus has a radius of 7.3 x 10 15 m and a charge of +79e. Part A Through what voltage must an c-particle, with its charge of +2e, be accelerated so that it has just enough energy to reach a distance of 2.3x10-14 m from the surface of a gold nucleus? (Assume the gold nucleus remains stationary and can be treated as a point charge.) Express your answer with the appropriate units. HA
