The activity of a radioactive sample is measured as $9750$ counts per minute at $t = 0$ and as $975$ counts per minute at $t = 5$ minutes. The decay constant is approximately ............ per minute.

If $f$ denotes the ratio of the number of nuclei decayed $(N_{d})$ to the number of nuclei at $t=0$ $(N_{0})$,then for a collection of radioactive nuclei,the rate of change of $f$ with respect to time is given as: [$\lambda$ is the radioactive decay constant]

$A$ certain radioactive substance has a half-life of $5\, years$. Thus, for a nucleus in a sample of the element, the probability of decay in $10\, years$ is ......... $\%$

The half-life of $_{38}^{90} Sr$ is $28$ years. What is the disintegration rate of $15 \; mg$ of this isotope?

$A$ radioactive sample decays at a rate of $5000$ disintegrations/minute at a certain instant. After $5$ minutes, the rate becomes $1250$ disintegrations/minute. The decay constant is ....... (in $\ln 2$)

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
