Nucleus: Practice Problem & Solution

Two nuclei have their mass numbers in the ratio of 1 : 3. The ratio of their nuclear densities would be: (2008)
1 : 1
1 : 3
3 : 1
$3^{1/3} : 1$

Short Solution (Best for NEET):

To solve this problem, we apply the core principles of Nucleus. Understanding the underlying formula is key to arriving at the correct answer below:

Nuclear density is roughly constant for all nuclei and is independent of the mass number A. Therefore, regardless of their mass numbers, the ratio of their nuclear densities is $1 : 1$.
