Detailed Solution

The radius of the nucleus is directly proportional to cube root of atomic number i.e., RA1/3R=R0A1/3, where R0 is a constant of proportionality

R2R1=A2A113=642713=43

where R1 = the radius of  27Al, and A1 = Atomic mass number of Al

R2 = the radius of 64Cu A2 = Atomic mass number of Cu 

R2=3.6×43=4.8 fermi
