Q.12. Consider two particles of masses m, = m and m2 = 3m moving with initial velocities Vii +1 m/s and v2i = -1 m/s along the same direction. The two %3D particles collide head-on elastically, and then leave the collision site with different velocities, v1f and var. The final velocities immediately after collision are: a. Vif = -2 m/s; v2f = 0 m/s %3D b. Vif = 0 m/s; V2f = 0.5 m/s c. Vif = -2.5 m/s; v2r = 0.5 m/s 3 m d. Vif = -4 m/s; v2f = 0 m/s
Scattering experiments in which moving particles are deflected by various forces, led to the concept of the nucleus of an atom. In 1911, the physicist Ernest Rutherford (1871–1937) discovered that when alpha particles are directed toward the nuclei of gold atoms, they are eventually deflected along hyperbolic paths, illustrated in the figure. If a particle gets as close as 3 units to the nucleus along a hyperbolic path with an asymptote given by y = (1/2)x, what is the equation of its path?
