Solution:
According to Rutherford's model, most of the mass of the atom is concentrated at the centre (nucleus) and the electron revolves around it.
As the electron is moving in a circular motion, it is accelerated. According to Maxwell accelerated charged particle loses its energy in the form of electro-magnetic radiation.
Therefore, a classical atom based on Rutherford's model is doomed to collapse.
