Ques. 1AIPMT 2010 (Prelims)

An alpha nucleus of energy 12mv2 bombards a heavy nuclear target of charge Ze. Then the distance of closest approach for the alpha nucleus will be proportional to

  1. 1Ze
  2. v2
  3. 1m
  4. 1v4

Answer

(3) 1m

Solution

At the distance of closest approach r0, the whole kinetic energy becomes electrostatic potential energy:

12mv2 = 14 0 (2e)(Ze)r0

r0 = 4Ze24 0 mv2

r0 Ze, r0 1v2 and r0 1m
