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

So Anar also tried many different ways to make a boundary for 800 square meters of land.
He made rectangles A, B, and C of different sizes. Find out the length of the boundary of each. How much gold wire will he get for these rectangles?
- A
Gold wire for A = _________ metres - B

Gold wire for B = _________ metres - C
Gold wire for C = __________ metres
But then Anar made an even longer rectangle... See how long!
- D

So he will get __________ metres of gold wire!!
There are two beautiful lakes near a village. People come for boating and picnics in both the lakes. The village Panchayat is worried that with the noise of the boats the birds will stop coming. The Panchayat wants motorboats in only one lake. The other lake will be saved for the birds to make their nests.
