According to Rutherford's model, what provides the necessary centripetal force for electrons to orbit the nucleus?

A major limitation of Rutherford's atomic model was its inability to explain:

If the kinetic energy of the alpha particles in Rutherford's experiment is doubled, how would the distance of closest approach ($r_0$) to the nucleus change?

Which of the following statements is NOT a postulate of Rutherford's nuclear model of the atom?

If Rutherford had used a very thick gold foil instead of a thin one, what would have been the most likely outcome regarding the alpha particle scattering?
