Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C) A, C and D only

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

A is Correct: In Rutherford's scattering experiment, \(\alpha\)-particles that pass very close to the nucleus experience a strong repulsive electrostatic force, leading to large-angle scattering. C is Correct: James Chadwick discovered the neutron in 1932. D is Correct:…
