उत्तर
Thomson’s model
It is wrong to ignore multiple scattering in Thomson’s model for the calculation of the average angle of scattering of α−particles by a thin foil. This is because a single collision causes a very little deflection in this model. Hence, the observed average scattering angle can be explained only by considering multiple scattering.
