Rutherford designed an experiment where he shot radioactive alpha particles (don't ask) through gold foil. At the time, the expected results were that the electrons would blast right through the gold with only a little deflection due to the slightly positive charge the atoms where believed to carry. To everyone's amazement, the ray went right through the foil and some electrons where deflected at a constant ratio. This would be like shooting a bullet through a piece of poster board (only on a much smaller scale of course). One would expect the bullet t just blast right through the poster, leaving a gaping hole. Well, imagine that the bullet went through without leaving a scratch on the board. The only logical explanation was that the atom is mostly empty space.
The Bohr Model is the modern name used by scientist for a model of an atom, which is often referred to as the Rutherford-Bohr model due to the fact that Neils Bohr just improved Ernest Rutherfords model.
Ernest Rutherford created the nuclear model of an atom!
Rutherford supposed that the atom had a central positive nucleus surrounded by negative electrons.
The Bohr model added the effects of Quantum Mechanics to the Rutherford model, solving both its problem of why the electron orbits don't spiral inward to the nucleus while radiating electromagnetic radiation and explaining the already known spectral line emission/absorption properties.
Ernest Rutherford was a brilliant scientist who, among other things, discovered what was inside an atom, putting paid to the previously accepted "plum pudding" model. By setting up a classic experiment involving gold foil and an alpha particle emitter, he noticed that atoms consisted of a dense central region (the nucleus), which possessed a positive charge.
Rutherfords Model is Rutherfords Model... thats it, its just a model.. go look it up on google images im sure you will figure it out by then.
The Bohr Model is the modern name used by scientist for a model of an atom, which is often referred to as the Rutherford-Bohr model due to the fact that Neils Bohr just improved Ernest Rutherfords model.
Because Joel is the man
The Rutherford model proposed that an atom's positive charge is concentrated in a dense center called the nucleus. This model was based on the famous gold foil experiment conducted by Ernest Rutherford in 1909.
It described a nucleus surrounded by a large volume of space.
The Rutherford model involve a positive nucleus separated from electrons.
Niels Bohr introduced the notion of electronic orbits.
Yes, Ernest Rutherford's invention of the nuclear model of the atom has had a significant impact on society today. This model laid the foundation for our understanding of atomic structure and has led to advancements in fields such as nuclear energy, medicine, and technology. It also paved the way for further research in particle physics and contributed to our understanding of the fundamental workings of the universe.

Rutherfords gold foil experiment demonstrated the existence of the nucleus and lead to the model of a positive nucleus surrounded by electrons. This model was further developed by Bohr and then by Schroedinger and others to become the quantum mechanical model we now have with electrons in orbitals around the central positively charged nucleus..
The atomic model of Rutherford was a step in the historical development of the today concept of an atom.
