Calculate distance of closet approach by an alpha -particle of KE=2.5 MeV being scattered by gold nucleus (Z=79) .

Large angle scattering of alpha- particle led Rutherford to the discovery of atomic nucleus. It is the tiny central core of every atom in which entire positive charge of the atom is concentrated. The distance of closet approach of alpha particle from the nucleus is r_(theta)=((Ze)(2e))/(4pi epsilon_(theta)((1)/(2)mv^(2))) This distance r_(theta) gave him the order of size of nucleus.
