An alpha particle is a nucleus of helium. It has twice the charge and four times the mass of the proton. When they were very far away from each other, but headed toward directly each other, a proton and an alpha particle each had an initial speed of 0.002c, where c is the speed of light. What is their distance of closest approach? Hint: There are two conserved quantities. Make use of both of them. (c = 3.00 × 108 m/s, k = 1/4πε0 = 8.99 × 109 N ∙ m2/C2, e = 1.60 × 10-19 C, mproton = 1.67 x 10-27 kg) (Give your answer to the nearest 0.001 pico meters (10-12 m)

An alpha particle is a nucleus of helium. It has twice the charge and four times the mass of the proton. When they were very far away from each other, but headed toward directly each other, a proton and an alpha particle each had an initial speed of 8.2×10−3 c, where c is the speed of light. What is their distance of closest approach? There are two conserved quantities. Make use of both of them. (c = 3.00 × 108...
An alpha particle is a nucleus of Helium. It has twice the charge and four times the mass of the proton (mp = 1.67 � 10-27 kg, c = 1.60 � 10-19 C). A proton and an alpha particle headed directly toward each other, had each initial speed of 0.0030c when they were far away. Here, as is customary when describing processes involving nuclear targets, the speed is expressed as a fraction of the speed of light, c = 3.0...
