3the size of the nucleus is very small as compared to the atomic size..

drawback

it can't explain the stability of an atom as per the model the orbital revolution of electrons around the nucleus is not stable of the revolving electron in orbit will undergo acceleration and limit energy..

Answer 2

Answer:

Rutherford's atomic model could not explain the stability of the atom as it is like a solar system, the sun is at the centre and the planets revolve around it, in an atom the electrons revolve around the centrally located nucleus containing protons.
