In Geiger-Marsden experiment, the number of scattered α-particles N(θ) is plotted as a function of scattering angle θ. Which of the following options represents the correct plot?
Correct Answer
Option A
Detailed Explanation
In the Geiger-Marsden experiment, most α-particles pass through with little deflection, while a few are scattered at large angles. This results in a plot where N(θ) decreases sharply with increasing θ.
