Answer 2

1. According to classical electromagnetic theory, when an electron moves around the nucleus under the influence of the attractive force, electron loses its energy continuously and move closer to the nucleus in a spiral path, the ultimate result will be that it will fall into nucleus but it can not happen as an atom is stable.

2. If an electron loses energy continuously,the observed spectrum should be continuous but the actual observed spectrum was discontinuous well defined lines of definite frequency.
