In saloons, there is always a characteristics smell due to the ammonia-based chemicals used in hair dyes and other products. Assume the initial concentration of ammonia molecules to be $1000 \,molecules/ m ^3$. Due to air ventilation, the number of molecules leaving in one minute is one tenth of the molecules present at the start of that minute. How long will it take for the concentration of ammonia molecules to reach $1 \,molecule / m ^3$ ?
$7$ minutes
$70$ minutes
$100$ minutes
Very long time which cannot be calculated.
Out of the following, which one is not emitted by a natural radioactive substance?
There are $10^{10}$ radioactive nuclei in a given radioactive element, Its half-life time is $1\, minute.$ How many nuclei will remain after $30\, seconds?$
$(\sqrt{2}=1.414)$
What can be found from decay curve ?
An accident in a nuclear laboratory resulted in deposition of a certain amount of radioactive material of half-life $18$ days inside the laboratory. Tests revealed that the radiation was $64$ times more than the permissible level required for safe operation of the laboratory. What is the minimum number of days after which the laboratory can be considered safe for use?
The count rate for $10\ g$ of radioactive material was measured at different times and this has been shown in the graph with scale given. The half life of the material and the total count in the first half value period respectively are
