$\frac{e}{e-1}$
Certain radio-active substance reduces to $25\%$ of its value in $16$ days. Its half-life is ........ $days$
A radioactive substance is being produced at a constant rate of $10\, nuclei/s.$ The decay constant of the substance is $1/2\, sec^{-1}.$ After what time the number of radioactive nuclei will become $10$ $?$ Initially there are no nuclei present. Assume decay law holds for the sample.
Three fourth of the active decays in a radioactive sample in $3/4\, sec$. The half life of the sample is
Activity of a radioactive substance can be represented by various unit. Select correct option
A radioactive material decays by simultaneous emission of two particles with respective half lives $1620$ and $810$ years. The time (in years) after which one- fourth of the material remains is
