A radioactive sample at any instant has its disintegration rate $5000$ disintegration per minute. After $5$ minutes, the rate is $1250$ disintegrations per minute. Then, the decay constant (per minute) is
$0.8 \, ln\, 2$
$0.4 \, ln\, 2$
$0.2 \, ln\, 2$
$0.1 \, ln\, 2$
$10\, gm$ of radioactive material of half-life $15$ year is kept in store for $20$ years. The disintegrated material is ............$gm$
Consider a radioactive nucleus $A$ which decays to a stable nucleus $C$ through the following sequence : $A \to B \to C$ Here $B$ is an intermediate nuclei which is also radioactive. Considering that there are $N_0$, atoms of $A$ initially, plot the graph showing the variation of number of atoms of $A$ and $B$ versus time.
Two species of radioactive atoms are mixed in equal number. The disintegration constant of the first species is $\lambda$ and of the second is $\lambda / 3$. After a long time the mixture will behave as a species with mean life of approximately
Substance $A$ has atomic mass number $16$ and half life of $1$ day. Another substance $B$ has atomic mass number $32$ and half life of $\frac{1}{2}$ day. If both $A$ and $B$ simultaneously start undergo radio activity at the same time with initial mass $320\,g$ each, how many total atoms of $A$ and $B$ combined would be left after $2$ days $.........\times 10^{24}$
Activity of radioactive element decreased to one third of original activity ${R_0}$ in $9$ years. After further $9$ years, its activity will be
