in Alpha particles scattering experiment performed by E.Rutherford as alpha particles get deflected then where will the Beta and Gama particle goes.Pls give a sensible answer and with detailed explaination and please don't give stupid answers.Pls answer fast.

First of all question is wrong.
Alpha and beta scatter.Gamma will not scatter.Also he did not use beta particle in a high number.
In this experiment alpha particle goes towards negatively charged plate and beta particle will go towards positive charged plate.As scattering of beta is less so it is assumed that it will not scatter.Gamma has no charge so it will go straight.
Also the penetrating power of alpha particle is less than beta and gamma particle.
For example if in a room you just put a radio active element then alpha particle can not pass through walls,it will deflect,beta particle will penetrate the wall,gamma can penetrate 20 to 30 such walls at a time.
So as penetrating power of alpha is less it scattered more,beta scatters less(about 0.003) and gamma will not scatter.
Hope you can understand.
Thanks.
