A freshly prepared radioactive sample of half- life $1$ hour emits radiations that are $128$ times as intense as the permissible safe limit. The minimum time after which this sample can be safely used is .........$hours$

A

$14$

B

$7$

C

$128 $

D

$256 $

Solution

(b) $\frac{N}{{{N_0}}} = {\left( {\frac{1}{2}} \right)^n}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{1}{{128}} = {\left( {\frac{1}{2}} \right)^7}$

$= {\left( {\frac{1}{2}} \right)^n} \Rightarrow n = 7.$
