Answer 1

The incorrect aspect of Rutherford's model that was fixed by Bohr's model is:

Electrons move freely in curved paths around the nucleus.

Bohr's model introduced the concept of quantized energy levels for electrons, meaning that they occupy specific orbits rather than moving freely in curved paths. This addressed the issue of electron stability in the atom and explained the observed spectral lines of hydrogen.
