A nucleus disintegrates into two nuclear parts, in such a way that ratio of their nuclear sizes is 1:21/31: {2}^{1 / 3}. Their respective speed have a ratio of n:1n: 1. The value of nn is_________

Correct answer

0

Step-by-step solution

Using the law of Momentum conservation

m1v1+m2(−v2)=0{m}_{1}{v}_{1} + {m}_{2} ( - {v}_{2} ) = 0
⇒m1v1=m2v2⇒ {m}_{1}{v}_{1} = {m}_{2}{v}_{2}
⇒(m1m2)=(v2v1)⇒4πρr3134πρr323=(v2v1)⇒ \left(\dfrac{{m}_{1}}{{m}_{2}}\right) = \left(\dfrac{{v}_{2}}{{v}_{1}}\right) ⇒ \dfrac{\dfrac{4\piρ{r}^{3}1}{3}}{\dfrac{4\piρ{r}^{3}2}{3}} = \left(\dfrac{{v}_{2}}{{v}_{1}}\right)

It is given

r1r2=1213\dfrac{{r}_{1}}{{r}_{2}} = \dfrac{1}{{2}^{\dfrac{1}{3}}}
and(r1r2)3=(v2v1)Therefore,(12)=(v2v1)\text{and}{\left(\dfrac{{r}_{1}}{{r}_{2}}\right)}^{3} = \left(\dfrac{{v}_{2}}{{v}_{1}}\right)\text{Therefore}, \left(\dfrac{1}{2}\right) = \left(\dfrac{{v}_{2}}{{v}_{1}}\right)
⇒v1v2=21⇒ \dfrac{{v}_{1}}{{v}_{2}} = \dfrac{2}{1}
