Physics Asked by Rasleen on April 20, 2021
In Rutherford’s model why were the angles of deflection different from each other?why were the deflections of large angles so less in number and was there a difference in deflections from protons and neutrons?
Summarized from a comment-as-answer discussion:
The alpha particles "bounce" off of the positively charged nucleus. The distances between the incoming alpha particle and the heavy nuclei are randomly distributed. A direct hit would bounce straight back, while a more distant pass would barely be displaced.
