The impact parameter is the perpendicular distance to the closest approach if the projectile were undeflected. The distance of closest approach of an alpha - particle fired towards a nucleus with momentum p is r. This distance estimates the size of the nucleus. The minimum distance upto which an energetic α-particle travelling directly towards the nucleus can move before coming to rest and then retracing its path is known as distance of closest approach. Calculate the distance of closest approach between an alpha particle of energy 55 MeV 55x10 6 x16x10 -19 if the charge on the gold nucleus is 79e 79x16x10 -19 C and the charge on the alpha particle is 2e 2x16x10 -19 C Using d c 14πε oqQE α we have d c 9x10 9 x 2x16x10 -19 x79x16x10 -1955x10 -13 66x10 -14 m.
