Question 5

Modelling software uses the same scale factor for every length in a magnified view of an atom.

In this view, the diameter of the atom is 16 cm and the diameter of its nucleus is 12 μm12\ \mu\mathrm{m}12 μm. The actual radius of the atom is 8.0 × 10-11 m.

What is the actual radius of the nucleus?
