- The destiny of a nucleus does not depend on the mass number A. Very light nuclei and heavy nuclei will have the same central density.
- Thus if we assume a nucleus to be spherical then the nuclear radius will be proportional to the cube root of the mass number. Thus we can write,
Here r0 is a constant of proportionality, and A is the mass number of the element.
