NEETPhysicsNuclear Physics
Consider the following two statements, A and B and identify the correct answer given below: A. Nuclear density is same for all nuclei B. Radius of the nucleus R and its mass number A are related as A R^ 1 / 6 .
Options
- ABoth A and B are true
- BBoth A and B are false
- CA is true but B is false
- DA is false but B is true
Correct answer
C. A is true but B is false
Step-by-step solution
Nuclear density for all nuclei is same and equal to 10¹⁷ ~kg / m ^3 Radius of nucleus and mass number are related as R=R₀(A)^ 1 / 3 or R (A)^ 1 / 3 Thus, (A) is true and (B) is false.
