How long does it take light to travel across the width of a pb nucleus of radius 7.1 fm?

The light takes 4.73×10⁻²³ s to travel across the width of the Pb nucleus.

Explanation:

Given :

Radius of Pb nucleus = 7.1 fm

Also, The conversion of fm into m is shown below:

1 fm = 10⁻¹⁵ m

The radius of Pb nucleus = 7.1×10⁻¹⁵ m

The width of Pb nucleus (diameter) = 2× Radius of the nucleus

Thus,

Width of Pb nucleus = 2×7.1×10⁻¹⁵ m = 14.2×10⁻¹⁵ m

The Speed of light = 3×10⁸ m/s

The formula for Speed is shown below:

Time can be calculated from the above formula as:

Applying values in the above formula as:

Time = 4.73×10⁻²³ s

oxygen, selenium, tellurium, and polonium.

they're all from the same group as sulfur (group 16).
