If this plastic cup is heated to its melting point, what will eventually happen to all the particles in the plastic? a. the particles will begin to move enough that they slide past each other. b. bonds will form and the liquid will become a solid. c. the spaces between the particles will get smaller. d. the particles will change state and become a crystalline solid.

An alpha particle with kinetic energy 12.5 mev makes a collision with lead nucleus, but it is not "aimed" at the center of the lead nucleus, and has an initial nonzero angular momentum (with respect to the stationary lead nucleus) of magnitude l = p0 b, where p0 is the magnitude of the initial momentum of the alpha particle and b=1.40×10−12 m. (assume that the lead nucleus remains stationary and that it may be treated as a point charge. the atomic number of lead is 82. the alpha particle is a helium nucleus, with atomic number 2.) what is the distance of closest approach?
