In a $RA$ element the fraction of initiated amount remaining after its mean life time is
$1 - \frac{1}{e}$
$\frac{1}{e^2}$
$\frac{1}{e}$
$1- \frac{1}{e^2}$
Define the disintegration rate or radioactivity of a sample and obtain the relation $R = \lambda N$ and define its different units.
Half lives of two radioactive substances $A$ and $B$ are respectively $20$ minutes and $40$ minutes. Initially the sample of $A$ and $B$ have equal number of nuclei. After $80$ minutes, the ratio of remaining number of $A$ and $B$ nuclei is
Consider a radioactive material of half-life $1.0 \, minute$. If one of the nuclei decays now, the next one will decay
$3.8$ days is the half-life period of a sample. After how many days, the sample will become $\frac{{1}}{{8}} \, th$ of the original substance
Which is the correct expression for half-life
