In the Millikan oil drop experiment tiny charged oil droplets generated by a spray are allowed to fall under gravity through a hole in a top electrode, T, towards a bottom electrode B separated from T by 1 cm. When a holding voltage Vh = +0.25V is applied between T and B the droplets are seen to be suspended motionless between the electrodes. What is the specific charge of the droplet q/m? Select one: a. 1.5 C/kg b. 2.7 C/kg c. 0.16 C/kg d. 0.392 C/kg

Rutherford's scattering experiment

Rutherford’s scattering experiment is also known as the gold foil experiment. This experiment disproved the plum pudding model of J.J. Thomson. In a gold foil experiment, high-energy alpha particles are made to strike a thin gold foil. The scattered alpha particles are detected using a detector. This experiment showed that the positive charge of the atom is at the center. Most of the atom’s mass is also confined to a small volume at the center. This region is known as the nucleus of the atom.
