In the AQA specification, you are required know how nuclear radius could be calculated. Below are the exact words:

We haven't covered this topic in lessons, nor could I find any information on the textbook. Could someone explain this please?
you may be doing physics B?

It's a bit late for that. I'm on study leave, the next time I come in school will be that physics exam.
