- From far away a proton is fired directly toward the center of the nucleus of a mercury atom. Mercury is element number 80, and the diameter of the nucleus is 14.0 fm. Assume the mercury nucleus is fully-ionized, with no electrons bound to it. If the proton is fired at a speed of 3.8×107 m/s, what is its closest approach to the surface of the nucleus? Assume the nucleus remains at rest. Express your answer with the appropriate units. ► View Available Hint(s) 0 d = 2.7 Submit A fm Previous Answers ?
