*In Thompson's plum pudding model the atom was a sphere of positive charges(protons) and the electrons were like plum in the pudding
it wasn't stable and would have collapsed
*in Rutherford's model, there was a nucleus of positive charges around which electrons revolved in orbits
it is otherwise known as planetary model
hope it helps you

Thomson's model of an atom states :-
1. An atom consists of a positively charged sphere and the electrons are embedded in it .
2. The negative and positive charges are equal in magnitude.So ,the atom as a whole is electrically neutral.
Whereas,
Rutherford's model of an atom states :-
1. There is a positively charged centre in an atom called the nucleus. Nearly all the mass of an atom resides in the nucleus.
2. The electrons revolve around the nucleus in circular paths .
