Make the quantities whose roots are being taken to be of the same size.
\starttext
% The simplest solution:
\startformula
\sqrt[3]{4n} \ne \sqrt[3] {\vphantom{4} n}
\stopformula
% More general
% \strut = \vphantom{(}, which is too big
\startformula
\sqrt[3]{\strut 4n} \ne \sqrt[3] {\strut n}
\stopformula
% We can define our own phantom sizes. You can play around with the numbers.
\define\filler{\vrule width 0pt height 2ex depth 0.3ex \relax}
\startformula
\sqrt[3]{\filler 4n} \ne \sqrt[3] {\filler n}
\stopformula
\stoptext
