Assuming the radius of a nucleus to be equal to R= 0.13 root(3)(A) pm, where A is its mass number, evalulate the density of nuclei and the number of nucleons per unit volume of the nucleus.

Answer»

Solution :This problem has misprint. Actually the radius `R` of a nucleus is given by
`R=1.3root(3)(A)FM`
where `fm= 10^(-15)m`
Then the number of nucleous per unit VOLUME is
`(A)/((4 pi)/(3)R^(3))=(3)/(4PI)XX(1.3)^(-3)xx10^(+39)CM^(-3)= 1.09xx10^(38)`per cc
The corresponding mass density is
`(1.09xx10^(38)xx"mass of nucleon") per c c =1.82xx10^(11)kg//c c`
