Q 12.11 (d) Answer the following questions, 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 -particles by a thin foil?
It is completely wrong to ignore multiple scattering for the calculation of the average angle of scattering of -particles by a thin foil in Thomson's model as the deflection caused by a single collision in this model is very small.
