For a substance,the average life for $\alpha$-emission is $1620 \ years$ and for $\beta$-emission is $405 \ years$. After how much time will $\frac{1}{4}$ of the material remain due to simultaneous emission?

Two radioactive materials $A_1$ and $A_2$ have decay constants of $10 \lambda_0$ and $\lambda_0$. If initially they have the same number of nuclei,the ratio of the number of their undecayed nuclei will be $(1/e)$ after a time $t$. Find $t$.

Which one of the following nuclei has a shorter mean life?

Two different radioactive elements with half-lives $T_1$ and $T_2$ have undecayed atoms $N_1$ and $N_2$ respectively present at a given instant. The ratio of their activities at that instant is

If $M_0$ is the initial mass of a radioactive substance with a half-life of ${t_{1/2}} = 5 \text{ years}$,what is the amount of substance remaining after $15 \text{ years}$?

$A$ radioactive sample is undergoing $\alpha$ decay. At any time $t_{1}$,its activity is $A$ and at another time $t_{2}$,the activity is $\frac{A}{5}$. What is the average life time for the sample?
