In one of the classic nuclear physics experiments at the beginning of the 20th century, an alpha particle was accelerated toward a gold nucleus, and its path was substantially deflected by the Coulomb interaction. If the energy of the doubly charged alpha nucleus was 2.25 MeV, how close (in m) to the gold nucleus (79 protons) could it come before being deflected

According to newton’s law of universal gravitation, which statements are true? as we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us decreases. as we move to higher altitudes, the force of gravity on us increases. as we gain mass, the force of gravity on us decreases. as we gain mass, the force of gravity on us increases. as we move faster, the force of gravity on us increases.
