What is a curie?

$A$ piece of wood from a recently cut tree shows $20$ decays per minute. $A$ wooden piece of the same size placed in a museum (obtained from a tree cut many years back) shows $2$ decays per minute. If the half-life of $C^{14}$ is $5730$ years,then the age of the wooden piece placed in the museum is approximately ........... years.

$99\%$ of the nuclei of a radioactive element decay between which of the following times?

Half-lives of two radioactive elements $A$ and $B$ are $20 \ min$ and $40 \ min$,respectively. Initially,the samples have equal number of nuclei. After $80 \ min$,the ratio of decayed number of $A$ and $B$ nuclei will be

The half-life of ${ }_{84}^{209} Po$ is $103 \text{ years}$. The time it takes for a $100 \text{ g}$ sample of ${ }_{84}^{209} Po$ to decay to $3.125 \text{ g}$ is

The activity of a radioactive sample is measured as $N_0$ counts per minute at time $t=0$,and $\frac{N_0}{e}$ counts per minute at time $t=3$ minutes. The activity reduces to half its value in time (in minutes) is:
