$A$ nucleus has mass number $A_1$ and volume $V_1$. Another nucleus has mass number $A_2$ and volume $V_2$. If the relation between mass numbers is $A_2 = 4 A_1$,then $\frac{V_2}{V_1} = $ . . . . . . .

Nuclear reactions are given as $(i)$ $(n, p) {}_{16}S^{32} \to {}_{15}P^{32}$,$(ii)$ $(p, \alpha) {}_{8}O^{16} \to {}_{9}F^{19}$,$(iii)$ ${}_{7}N^{14} + ? \to {}_{6}C^{14} + {}_{1}H^{1}$. The missing particles or nuclides in these reactions are respectively:

Given below are three schematic graphs of potential energy $V(r)$ versus distance $r$ for three atomic particles: electron $(e^{-})$,proton $(p^{+})$,and neutron $(n)$,in the presence of a nucleus at the origin $O$. The radius of the nucleus is $r_0$. The scale on the $V$-axis may not be the same for all figures. The correct pairing of each graph with the corresponding atomic particle is
