The energy spectrum of $\beta$-particles [number $N(E)$ as a function of $\beta$-energy $E$] emitted from a radioactive source is

In a sample of radioactive material, what percentage of the initial number of active nuclei will decay during one mean life .......... $\%$

The fossil bone has a ${}^{14}C:{}^{12}C$ ratio, which is $\left[ {\frac{1}{{16}}} \right]$ of that in a living animal bone. If the halflife of ${}^{14}C$ is $5730\, years$, then the age of the fossil bone is ..........$years$

The initial activity of a certain radioactive isotope was measured as $16000\ counts\  min^{-1}$. Given that the only activity measured was due to this isotope and that its activity after $12\, h$ was $2000\ counts\ min^{-1}$, its half-life, in hours, is nearest to

Define $SI$ unit of radioactivity ? 

Starting with a sample of pure ${}^{66}Cu$, $7/8$ of it decays into $Zn$ in $15\  minutes$ . The it decays into $Zn$ in $15\  minutes$ . The corresponding half-life is ................ $minutes$
