What is the most important difference between Rutherford's and Bohr's atomic model. Has it got something related with nuclear energy??? PLEASE ANSWER FAST..

The major difference between Rutherford and Bohr model is the manner in which electrons revolve around the nucleus.

Rutherford's model states that the electrons move about the nucleus of the atom while Bohr stated in his model that electrons move around the nucleus in discrete orbits.
The electrons can absorb energy and move to a higher orbit. They radiate energy when they move into a lower orbit from a higher one. 

The two models are not related to nuclear energy.

RUTHERFORD MODEL OF ATOM EXPLAINED THAT MOST OF THE ATOM IS EMPTY ONLY A SMALL PART OF THE ATOM IS THE POSITIVELY CHARGED NUCLEUS AT THE CENTRE. WHEREAS IN BOHR MODEL OF ATOM THE ELECTRON REVOLVE AROUND THE NUCLEUS IN DEFNITE ORBITS WHICH COULD RADIATE ENERGY AND SHIFTS INTO NEXT ORBIT. WHEREAS IN RUTHERFORD ATOM THE ELECTRON RADIATE ENERGY AND FALL INTO THE NUCLEUS.
