The high speed
Positive charge
Negative charge

Limitations of Rutherford’s Model of the Atom:
As Rutherford’s Model suggests electrons always revolve around the nucleus.
From the point of mechanics, it is okay as Coulomb's force provides the necessary centripetal force.
But according to Maxwell’s equation of electromagnetism, this revolving electron continuously emits radiation at all temperatures.
This energy spends ultimately makes an electron fall on the nucleus. But in the real case hydrogen is very stable nor emit any energy.
