Q.

A nucleus disintegrates into two smaller parts, which have their velocities in the ratio 3 : 2. The ratio of their nuclear sizes will be (x3)1/3. The value of 'x' is ______.    [2023]


Ans.

(2)

v1v2=32

m1v1=m2v2  m1m2=23

Since nuclear mass density is constant

m143πr13=m243πr23

(r1r2)3=m1m2

r1r2=(23)13    So, x=2
