Simple Physics Quiz

Re: Simple Physics Quiz

Thank you blueangel - nice quiz :slight_smile: Havt a=to admit 8b was kind of a guess.

“Some alpha particles passed through the thin gold leaf and were scattered at an angle, this showed Rutherford that a nucleus has a positive charge.”

Why did the alpha particles passing through the thin gold leaf mean they have alpha particles have a postive charge?

Fiber optics - how is the angle of incidence of light controlled to > critical angle for total internal reflection to take place,
