If a radioactive material remains $25 \%$ after $16$ days, then its half life will be ......... days

A

$32$

B

$8$

C

$64$

D

$28$

Solution

(b)

$\frac{N}{N_0}=\left(\frac{N}{4 \times N}\right)$

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

$\text { or } n=2$

$2$ half lives in $16$ days

$\therefore \quad 1$ half life is in $8$ days
