The distance between the body centred atom and one corner atom is (√3 a/2)

Q. If $a$ is the length of the side of a cube, the distance between the body centered atom and one corner atom in the cube will be :

$\frac{2}{3} a$

$\frac{4}{3} a$

$\frac{3}{4} a$

$\frac{3}{2} a$

The distance between the body centred atom and one corner atom is $\frac{3 a}{2}$
