The half-life of a radioactive substance is $100 \ s$. How many grams of the radioactive substance will remain after $5 \ min$ if the initial amount is $8 \ g$ (in $g$)?

The half-life of a radioactive substance is $18 \text{ minutes}$. The time interval between its $20 \%$ decay and $80 \%$ decay in minutes is

$A$ $280\, \text{day}$ old radioactive substance shows an activity of $6000\, \text{dps}$. $140\, \text{days}$ later, its activity becomes $3000\, \text{dps}$. What was its initial activity? ......... $\text{dps}$

The decay of a radioactive material is shown in the graph. From the graph,the decay constant of the material is nearly (in $h^{-1}$)

The half-life of $Ra^{226}$ is $1620$ years. Calculate the number of atoms that decay in one second in $1 \ g$ of radium (Avogadro number $= 6.023 \times 10^{23}$).

$A$ piece of wood from the ruins of an ancient building was found to have a $^{14}C$ activity of $12$ disintegrations per minute per gram of its carbon content. The $^{14}C$ activity of the living wood is $16$ disintegrations per minute per gram. How long ago did the tree,from which the wooden sample came,die? Given half-life of $^{14}C$ is $5760$ years.
