The activity of a freshly prepared radioactive sample is $10^{10}$ disintegrations per second,whose mean life is $10^9 \ s$. The mass of an atom of this radioisotope is $10^{-25} \ kg$. The mass (in $mg$) of the radioactive sample is

  • A
    $1$
  • B
    $2$
  • C
    $3$

$A$ radioactive element has a half-life period of $800$ years. After $6400$ years,what fraction of the initial amount will remain?

The half-life of a radioactive substance is $20 \, min$. The approximate time interval $(t_2 - t_1)$ between the time $t_2$ when $\frac{2}{3}$ of it has decayed and the time $t_1$ when $\frac{1}{3}$ of it has decayed is .......... $min$.

Which is the correct expression for half-life?

$A$ radioactive substance in a laboratory has a half-life of $2 \text{ hours}$. It is considered safe for laboratory use when its activity reduces to $1/64$ of its initial value. After how many hours will the laboratory be safe?

Two radioactive materials $A$ and $B$ have decay constants $25 \lambda$ and $16 \lambda$ respectively. If initially they have the same number of nuclei,then the ratio of the number of nuclei of $B$ to that of $A$ will be $e$ after a time $t = \frac{1}{a \lambda}$. The value of $a$ is $......$
