Rutherford fired a beam of alpha particles (helium nuclei) at a thin sheet of gold. An alpha particle was observed to be deflected by 90.0°; its speed was unchanged. The alpha particles used in the experiment had an initial speed of 1.8 ✕ 107 m/s and a mass of 6.7 ✕ 10−27 kg. Assume the alpha particle collided with a gold nucleus that was initially at rest. Find the speed of the nucleus after the collision.

Which statement is true for light passing into a medium that is more optically dense than the first medium through which it past

What are similarities and differences of reflection, refraction, diffraction and absorption?

5submission this assignment is worth 20 points total. you are required to submit the following by next lab: 1. (3 points) determine the equation for the output angular velocity ω2 = θ˙ 2 as a function of θ1, ω1 = θ˙ 1 and α. you must show all your work to receive credit. 2. (2 points) use the result of problem#1 to plot ω2 over 0 ≤ θ1 ≤ 360deg with ω1 = 360deg/sec. do this for α = {10,30}deg. show the results on the same plot and properly label the axes, title, legend. for this you can use matlab or ms excel. 3. (3 points) determine the equation for the output angular acceleration ω˙ 2 and create a plot similar to the one in problem#2. 4. (10 points) submit plots of the results (ω2 and ω˙ 2) obtained from creo/mechanism and compare them to results of problem#2 and problem#3. note that you should do these comparisons for the two cases with α = {10,30}deg. 5. (2 points) provide a brief explanation of the results. did they match? what are the implications as misalignment angle increases?
