An alpha particle with a kinetic energy of 130mev makes a


An alpha particle with a kinetic energy of 13.0MeV makes a head-on collision with a gold nucleus at rest.

What is the distance of closest approach of the two particles? (Suppose that the gold nucleus remains stationary and that it might be treated as a point charge. The atomic number of gold is 79, and an alpha particle is a helium nucleus consisting of two neutrons and two protons.)
