Help im stuck with this lab Rutherford proposed that the "hit ratio" was approximately equal to the volume ratio. This is the hypothesis you will test in this experiment.

A a small box is placed inside of a bigger box, when you calculate the volume you get that the smaller box is 1.6% of the volume of the big box.
A couple of marbles are blindly thrown at the small box and whenever it gets hit it gets moved. Calculating the percentage, the small box gets hit 32% of the time.

Was Rutherfords hypothesis reasonable? Is the hit ratio approximate to the volume ratio?

Assume that two of the electrons at the negative terminal have attached themselves to a nearby neutral atom. there is now a negative ion with a charge -2e at this terminal. what are the electric potential and electric potential energy of the negative ion relative to the electron? the electric potential and the electric potential energy are both twice as much. the electric potential is twice as much and the electric potential energy is the same. the electric potential is the same and the electric potential energy is twice as much. the electric potential and the electric potential energy are both the same. the electric potential is the same and the electric potential energy is increased by the mass ratio of the oxygen ion to the electron. the electric potential is twice as much and the electric potential energy is increased by the mass ratio of the oxygen ion to the electron.
