In a radioactive decay process , the negatively charged emitted $\beta -$ particles are
the electrons orbiting around the nucleus
the electrons produced as a result of collisions between atoms
the electrons produced as a result of the decay of neautrons inside the nucleus
the electrons present inside the nucleus
Radioactive nuclei that are injected into a patient collect at certain sites within its body, undergoing radioactive decay and emitting electromagnetic radiation. These radiations can then be recorded by a detector. This procedure provides an important diagnostic tool called
A sample initially contains only $U -238$ isotope of uranium. With time, some of the $U -238$ radioactively decays into $Pb -206$ while the rest of it remains undisintegrated.
When the age of the sample is $P \times 10^8$ years, the ratio of mass of $Pb -206$ to that of $U -238$ in the sample is found to be $7$ . The value of $P$ is. . . . . .
[Given : Half-life of $U-238$ is $4.5 \times 10^9$ years; $\log _e 2=0.693$ ]
The graph which represents the correct variation of logarithm of activity $(log\, A)$ versus time, in figure is
A radioactive substance emits
Two radioactive nuclei $A$ and $B$ both convert into a stable nucleus $C$. At time $t = 0$ nuclei of $A$ are $4N_0$ and that of $B$ are $N_0$. Half life of $A$ is $1\, min$ and that of $B$ is $2\, min$. initially number of nuclei of $C$ are zero. At what time rate of disintegrations of $A$ and $B$ are equal .......... $min$
