Answer the following questions, which help you understand the difference between Thomson and rutherford- Keeping other factors fixed, it is found experimentally that for small thickness t, the number of `alpha`-particles scattered at moderate angles is proportional to t. What clue does this linear dependence on t provide?

Answer the following question, which help you understand the difference between Thomson's model and Rutherford's model better- In which model is it completely wrong to ignore multiple scattering for the calculation of average angle of scattering of alpha -particles by a thin foil?

Answer the following questions which help you to understand the difference between Thomson's model and Rutherford's model better. Is the probability of backward scattering (i.e.,scattering of alpha -particles at angle greater than 90^@ ) predicted by Thomson's model much less, about the same, or much greater than that predicted by Rutherford's model?

Answer the following questions, which help you understand the difference b/w thomson's model and rutherford model: Is the average angle of deflection of alpha -particles by a thin gold foil predicted by Thomson's model much less, about the same or much greater than that predicted by Rutherford's model?
