The radius of atom is of the order of 1 Å and the radius of nucleus is of the order of fermi. How many magnitudes higher is the volume of atom as compared to the volume of nucleus?

उत्तर
Radius of atom = 1 Å = 10–10 m
Radius of nucleus = 1 fermi = 10–15 m
Volume of atom = VA = `4/3 πR_A^3`
Volume of atom = `4/3 πR_A^3`
Volume of nucleus VN = `4/3 πR_N^3`
`V_A/V_N = (4/3 πR_A^3)/(4/3 πR_N^3)`
= `(R_A/R_N)^3`
= `(10^-10/10^-15)^3`
= 1015

The farthest objects in our Universe discovered by modern astronomers are so distant that light emitted by them takes billions of years to reach the Earth. These objects (known as quasars) have many puzzling features, which have not yet been satisfactorily explained. What is the distance in km of a quasar from which light takes 3.0 billion years to reach us?
