Problem with the Rutherford ModelThis model couldn’t exist based on classical mechanics (from Newton)Electrons should lose energy and collapse into the nucleus
His main concept is : The energy and frequency of light emitted or absorbed is given by the difference between the two orbit energies.
* He added the concept of energy in quanta from Planck to Rutherford’s Model. This helps explain the reason colors appear.
