Leaving out the somewhat ridiculous and sometimes shameful religious slant towards this question, you would think that the purpose of humans is to find ways to work cooperatively to maintain the earth and its resources so that all of us have clean water and air, comfortable housing and clothing, adequate healthcare, and equal opportunities for work and education, and amenities such as transportation, communication, entertainment, and recreation. We should be able to do all this without polluting or spoiling the earth, which is, of course, the mother of all of us.

Answer 2

Assertion: Most of the α (alpha) particles passed through Gold foil in Rutherford’s experiment.

Reason: According to Rutherford, electrons revolve around the Nucleus.

Both assertion and reason are correct but reason is not the correct explanation of the assertion.

• In Rutherford's α-particle scattering experiment, it was observed that most of the rays did not suffer any deviation in their path and were able to get crossed through the gold atom.
• It was because most of the space inside an atom is empty.
• The nucleus of an atom was also discovered by Rutherford.
• So, both statements are correct but the reason is not the appropriate explanation of the assertion.
