In the Rutherford scattering experiment,what will be the correct scattering angle $\theta$ for an $\alpha$-particle with an impact parameter $b = 0$ (in $^o$)?

In an alpha particle scattering experiment,the distance of closest approach for the $\alpha$-particle is $4.5 \times 10^{-14} \ m$. If the target nucleus has an atomic number $Z = 80$,then the maximum velocity of the $\alpha$-particle is approximately $... \times 10^5 \ m/s$.
$\left(\frac{1}{4 \pi \epsilon_0} = 9 \times 10^9 \ SI \ unit, \text{mass of } \alpha \text{-particle } m = 6.72 \times 10^{-27} \ kg, e = 1.6 \times 10^{-19} \ C\right)$

Who discovered the spin quantum number?

In $1911$,the physicist Ernest Rutherford discovered that atoms have a tiny,dense nucleus by shooting positively charged particles at a very thin gold foil. $A$ key physical property which led Rutherford to use gold was that it was

Choose the correct alternative from the clues given at the end of each statement:
$(a)$ The size of the atom in Thomson's model is .......... the atomic size in Rutherford's model. (much greater than/no different from/much less than.)
$(b)$ In the ground state of .......... electrons are in stable equilibrium,while in .......... electrons always experience a net force. (Thomson's model/Rutherford's model.)
$(c)$ $A$ classical atom based on .......... is doomed to collapse. (Thomson's model/Rutherford's model.)
$(d)$ An atom has a nearly continuous mass distribution in a .......... but has a highly non-uniform mass distribution in .......... (Thomson's model/Rutherford's model.)
$(e)$ The positively charged part of the atom possesses most of the mass in .......... (Rutherford's model/both the models.)

In Rutherford's experiment,the number of particles scattered at a $90^{\circ}$ angle is $x$ per second. The number of particles scattered per second at an angle of $60^{\circ}$ is:
