$A$ radioactive element decays at such a rate that after $15 \ min$ only $1/10$ of the original amount is left. How many more minutes will be needed when only $1/100$ of the original amount will be left? .......... $\min$

$^{226}Ra$ disintegrates at such a rate that after $3160 \ years$ only one-fourth of its original amount remains. The half-life of $^{226}Ra$ will be .......... $years$.

${ }^{227}Ac$ has a half-life of $22 \, years$ with respect to radioactive decay. The decay follows two parallel paths: ${ }^{227}Ac \longrightarrow { }^{227}Th$ and ${ }^{227}Ac \longrightarrow { }^{223}Fr$. If the percentage of the two daughter nuclides are $2.0$ and $98.0$,respectively,the decay constant (in $year^{-1}$) for ${ }^{227}Ac \longrightarrow { }^{227}Th$ path is closest to

The ratio of $\frac{{}^{14}C}{{}^{12}C}$ in a piece of wood is $\frac{1}{8}$ part that of the atmosphere. If the half-life of ${}^{14}C$ is $5730 \text{ years}$,the age of the wood sample is $.....$ years.

The half-life of $1 \ g$ of a radioactive sample is $9 \ hours$. The radioactive decay obeys first-order kinetics. The time required for the original sample to reduce to $0.2 \ g$ is .......... $hours$.

What is the half-life period of a nucleus in $days$ if at the end of $4.2$ $days$,$N = 0.798 \ N_0$?
