The electrical resistance in ohms of a certain thermometer varies with temperature according to the approximate law: R=R_o[1 + a (T- T_o)] . The resistance is 101.6 ohom at the triple-point of water 273.16 K, and 165.5 ohm at the normal melting point of lead (600.5 K). What is the temperature when the resistance is 123.4 ohm

The unit of length convenient on the nuclear scale is a fermi : 1 f = 10^(-15) m. Nuclear sizes obey roughly the following empirical relation : r = r_0A^(1/3) where r is the radius of the nucleus, A its mass number, and r_0 is a constant equal to about, 1.2 f. Show that the rule implies that nuclear mass density is nearly constant for different nuclei. Estimate the mass density of sodium nucleus. Compare it with the average mass density of a sodium atom obtained in Exercise. 2.27.
