The electrostatic energy of Z protons uniformly distributed...
The electrostatic energy of Z protons uniformly distributed throughout a spherical nucleus of radius R is given by The measured masses of the neutron, are 1.008665 u, 1.007825 u, 15.000109 u and 15.003065 u respectively. Given that the radii of both the nuclei are same, 1u = 931.5 Me V/ (c is the speed of light) Assuming that the difference between the binding energies of is purely due to the electrostatic energy, the radius of either of the nuclei is
