A rough estimate of the radius of a nucleus is provided by the formula r 5 kA1/3, where k is approximately 1.3 × 10213 cm and A

is the mass number of the nucleus. Estimate the den- sity of the nucleus of 127I (which has a nuclear mass of 2.1 × 10222 g) in grams per cubic centimeter. Compare with the density of solid iodine, 4.93 g cm23.

Answer:

Density of 127 I = \rm 1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3.

Also, \rm Density\ of\ ^{127}I=3.63\times 10^{13}\times Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine.

Explanation:

Given, the radius of a nucleus is given as

\rm r=kA^{1/3}.

where,

  • \rm k = 1.3\times 10^{-13} cm.
  • A is the mass number of the nucleus.

The density of the nucleus is defined as the mass of the nucleus M per unit volume V.

\rm \rho = \dfrac{M}{V}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi r^3}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi (kA^{1/3})^3}=\dfrac{M}{\dfrac 43 \pi k^3A}.

For the nucleus 127 I,

Mass, M = \rm 2.1\times 10^{-22}\ g.

Mass number, A = 127.

Therefore, the density of the 127 I nucleus is given by

\rm \rho = \dfrac{2.1\times 10^{-22}\ g}{\dfrac 43 \times \pi \times (1.3\times 10^{-13})^3\times 127}=1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3.

On comparing with the density of the solid iodine,

\rm \dfrac{Density\ of\ ^{127}I}{Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine}=\dfrac{1.79\times 10^{14}\ g/cm^3}{4.93\ g/cm^3}=3.63\times 10^{13}.\\\\\Rightarrow Density\ of\ ^{127}I=3.63\times 10^{13}\times Density\ of\ the\ solid\ iodine.

What is the average speed of a car that moved 40 km in 3 hours?
Naya [18.7K]

<u>A</u> would be the answer, since it would take about 3 hours to cover most of it, 10km/h would be the average speed.


really hope this helps.

Define impulse and momentum.<br>No spam​
Doss [256]

Impulse: a certain amount of force you apply for an amount of time.

Impulse: F*t where F= Force & t=time

Momentum: increasing forward motion.

A ball rolling down a slide gains momentum

p=mv where m=mass and v=velocity

Hope it helps!

It is necessary to determine the specific heat of an unknown object. The mass of the object is 201.0 g. It is determined experim
navik [9.2K]
Mass = 0.201kg
Energy = 15J
temperature change = 10C

Energy(E) = mass(m) × specific heat capacity(c) × temperature change(θ)

we can rearrange this to make specific heat capacity the subject

c =\frac{E}{m\theta}

c =\frac{15}{2.01}
c =7.46268657
