An active nucleus decays to one-third $\left(\frac{1}{3}\right)$ of its initial activity in $20 \text{ hours}$. The fraction of original activity remaining after $80 \text{ hours}$ is:

Half-life of a radioactive substance $A$ is two times the half-life of another radioactive substance $B$. Initially, the number of nuclei of $A$ and $B$ are $N_A$ and $N_B$ respectively. After three half-lives of $A$, the number of nuclei of both are equal. Then $\frac{N_A}{N_B}$ is

There are two radionuclei $A$ and $B.$ $A$ is an alpha emitter and $B$ is a beta emitter. Their disintegration constants are in the ratio of $1 : 2.$ What should be the ratio of the number of atoms of the two at time $t = 0$ so that the probabilities of getting $\alpha$ and $\beta$ particles are the same at time $t = 0$?
