In 1911, the physical Ernest Rutherford discovered that atoms have a tiny, dense nucleus by shooting positively charged particles at a very thin gold foil. A key physical property which led Rutherford to use gold was that it was

In what way was the Rutherford's atomic model different from that of Thomson's atomic model?
MEDIUM
In Thomson's mass spectrographs, when an electric field of 2×104 V m-1 is applied then the deflection produced on the screen is 20 mm. If the length of the plates is 5 cm and the distance of the screen from plates is 21 cm and the velocity of positive ions is 106 m s-1, then their specific charge will be:
