A nuclear core was consistent with the experimental results.

Avery AdamsWhile most alpha particles passed through the foil with little deflection, suggesting that atoms are mostly empty space, some alpha particles were deflected at large angles, indicating that they had encountered a dense, positively charged center within the atom, which Rutherford named the nucleus. These results from Rutherford's gold foil experiment demonstrated the existence of a nucleus.

When evaluating a one-sided limit, you need to be careful when a quantity is approaching zero since its sign is different depending on which way it is approaching zero from. Let us look at some examples.
