To understand why nuclear density is the same for all nuclei, we can follow these steps:
### Step 1: Understand the Formula for Nuclear Density
The nuclear density (\( \rho \)) is defined as the mass of the nucleus divided by its volume. Mathematically, this can be expressed as:
\[
\rho = \frac{M}{V}
\]
where \( M \) is the mass and \( V \) is the volume of the nucleus.
