Energy levels $A, B, C$ of a certain atom correspond to increasing values of energy i.e., $E_A < E_B < E_C$. If ${\lambda _1},{\lambda _2},{\lambda _3}$ are the wavelengths of radiation corresponding to the transition $C$ to $B, B$ to $A$ and $C$ to $A$ respectively, which of the following relation is correct ?

In gold foil experiment number of deflected $\alpha -$ particles at angle $90^o$ is $63$ than number of $\alpha -$ particle deflected at $120^o$ is

The Rutherford $\alpha$-particle experiment shows that most of the $\alpha$-particles pass through almost unscattered while some are scattered through large angles. What information does it give about the structure of the atom

Answer the following questions, which help you understand the difference between Thomson's model and Rutherford's model better.

$(a)$ Is the average angle of deflection of $\alpha$ -particles by a thin gold foil predicted by Thomson's model much less, about the same, or much greater than that predicted by Rutherford's model?

$(b)$ Is the probability of backward scattering (i.e., scattering of $\alpha$ -particles at angles greater than $90^{\circ}$ ) predicted by Thomson's model much less, about the same, or much greater than that predicted by Rutherford's model?

$(c)$ Keeping other factors fixed, it is found experimentally that for small thickness $t,$ the number of $\alpha$ -particles scattered at moderate angles is proportional to $t$. What clue does this linear dependence on $t$ provide?

$(d)$ In which model is it completely wrong to ignore multiple scattering for the calculation of average angle of scattering of $\alpha$ -particles by a thin foil?
