Antialpha particles are hypothetical particles emitted in an antimatter reaction. A project in a Physicslaboratory is trying to find a way to protect astronauts against this type of radiation that could be aproblem in space travel. For that purpose, the lab is testing a sort of capacitor formed by an inner solidspherical conductor surrounded by a thin conducting shell of radii r<R (the largest spherical shell hasradius R, the solid conductor has radius r) with r=0.5m and R=2.0 m . Just outside (very near the surface)of the spherical shell a hall-effect based probe measures the electric field to be 65 Volts/meter (pointedtoward the center of the shell). To test the radiation shield, an antialpha particle is launched towardsthe device with speed of 120000 meter/second at a distance of 10 meters from the device. Find theclosest (distance) the antialpha particle can approach the center of the inner solid sphere.Hint: An antialpha particle consists of two antiprotons (negative charge)…
