As we have learnt,

(I) Rutherfords's gold foil experiment cannot explain the line spectrum of Hydrogen.

(II) Bohr's model contradicts the Heisenberg's uncertainity principle as it predicts the radius as well as the speed of the electron simultaneously without any error.

Thus, both statements are true.

Hence, the correct answer is option (4)
