An α particles of energy 10MeV is scattered through 1800  by a fixed uranium nucleus. The distance of closed approach of order of  MeV

a
−10
b
−12
c
−13
d
−14

detailed solution

Correct option is D

KE=PE=14π∈0×2Ze2dd=9×109×2×236×1.6×1.6×10−3810×106×1.6×10−19=18×236×1.6×10−14=6796.8×10−17=6.796×10−14.
