Unit of radioactivity is Rutherford. Its value is
The rate of disintegration of a fixed quantity of a radioactive element can be increased by
A freshly prepared sample of a radioisotope of half-life $1386 \ s$ has activity $10^3$ disintegrations per second. Given that In $2=0.693$, the fraction of the initial number of nuclei (expressed in nearest integer percentage) that will decay in the first $80 \ s$ after preparation of the sample is :
