Jessisa is doing an experiment. She knows that her alpha particle in her expirement has charge 2e and mass 6.64x10^(-27). Jessisa aims and shoots the alpha particle towards a stationary gold nucleus. Jessisa knows the gold nucleus has a charge of 79e. the gold nucleus and the alpha particle are 10cm appart from eachother,the alpha particle moves at 1000m/s. Help jessisa figure out the following things: a. What is the speed of the alpha particle when it is 1.00mm away from the gold nucleus? b. What is the closest distance the alpha particle can go reletive to the gold nucleus before the alpha particle rebounds ?

Pls help me with this question and make sure its 100% correct The amount of meat in prehistoric diets can be determined by measuring the ratio of the isotopes nitrogen-15 to nitrogen-14 in bone from human remains. Carnivores concentrate 15N15N, so this ratio tells archaeologists how much meat was consumed by ancient people. Suppose you use a velocity selector to obtain singly ionized (missing one electron) nitrogen atoms of speed 8.50 km/skm/s and bend them along a semicircle within a uniform magnetic field. The 14N14N atoms travel along a semicircle with a diameter of 32.2 cmcm. The measured masses of these isotopes are 2.32×10−26kg2.32×10−26kg (14N14N) and 2.49×10−26kg2.49×10−26kg (15N15N). Part A. Find the separation of the 14N14N and 15N15N isotopes at the detector. Express your answer with the appropriate units.
