Assertion: The force of repulsion between atomic nucleus and `alpha`-particle varies with distance according to inverse square law.
Reason: Rutherford did `alpha`-particles scattering experiment.

A

If both assertion and reason are true and reason is the correct explanation of assertion.

B

If both assertion and reason are true but reason is not the correct explanation of assertion.

C

If assertion is true but reason is false.

D

If assertion is false but reason is true.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Rutherford confirmed the repulsive force on `alpha`-particle due to nucleus varies with distance according to inverse square law and that the positive changes are concentraed at the cnetre and not distributed throughout the atom.
