Q.

A nucleus of mass number 189 splits into two nuclei having mass number 125 and 64. The ratio of radius of two daughter nuclei respectively is           [2022]

1 1 : 1   
2 4 : 5  
3 5 : 4     
4 25 : 16  

Ans.

(3)

Nuclear radius, R=R0A1/3                     ...(i)

where R0 is a constant and A is the mass number.

From eq. (i), RA1/3

        R1R2=(12564)1/3,  R1R2=54
