If the radioactive decay constant of radium is $1.07 \times {10^{ – 4}}$ per year, then its half life period is approximately equal to ………$years$

There are $10^{10}$ radioactive nuclei in a given radioactive element, Its half-life time is $1\, minute.$ How many nuclei will remain after $30\, seconds?$

$(\sqrt{2}=1.414)$

${ }^{131} I$ is an isotope of Iodine that $\beta$ decays to an isotope of Xenon with a half-life of $8$ days. A small amount of a serum labelled with ${ }^{131} \mathrm{I}$ is injected into the blood of a person. The activity of the amount of ${ }^{131} \mathrm{I}$ injected was $2.4 \times 10^5$ Becquerel $(\mathrm{Bq})$. It is known that the injected serum will get distributed uniformly in the blood stream in less than half an hour. After $11.5$ hours, $2.5 \mathrm{ml}$ of blood is drawn from the person's body, and gives an activity of $115 \mathrm{~Bq}$. The total volume of blood in the person's body, in liters is approximately (you may use $\mathrm{e}^{\mathrm{x}} \approx 1+\mathrm{x}$ for $|\mathrm{x}| \ll 1$ and $\ln 2 \approx 0.7$ ).

The half-life of a radioactive nuclide is $100 \,hours.$ The fraction of original activity that will remain after $150\, hours$ would be :

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 ………$hours$
