MCQ
In Rutherford scattering experiment, what will be the correct angle for $\alpha$ scattering for an impact parameter $b=0$
  • A
    $90^{\circ}$
  • B
    $270^{\circ}$
  • C
    $0^{\circ}$
  • $180^{\circ}$

Answer

Correct option: D.
$180^{\circ}$
Impact parameter $b \propto \cot \frac{\theta}{2}$
Here $b=0$, hence $\theta=180^{\circ}$
