The nuclei have mass numbers in the ratio 1 : 27. The ratio of the their nucleus radii will be, respectively: |
2 $\frac{1}{2}$ 3 $\frac{1}{3}$ |
$\frac{1}{3}$ |
The correct answer is Option (4) → $\frac{1}{3}$ The radius (R) of a nucleus is given by - $R=R_0A^{1/3}$ where, A = Mass number $\frac{R_1}{R_2}=\frac{R_0{A_1}^{1/3}}{R_0{A_2}^{1/3}}=\sqrt[3]{\frac{A_1}{A_2}}$ $=\sqrt[3]{\frac{1}{27}}=\frac{1}{3}$ |
