The radioactivity of a certain radioactive element drops to $1/64$ of its initial value in $30\, seconds$. Its half life is .........$seconds$
$2 $
$4 $
$5$
$6$
A sample of a radioactive nucleus $A$ disintegrates to another radioactive nucleus $B$, which in turn disintegrates to some other stable nucleus $C.$ Plot of a graph showing the variation of number of atoms of nucleus $B$ vesus time is :
(Assume that at ${t}=0$, there are no ${B}$ atoms in the sample)
Age of a tree is determined using radio-isotope of
Which sample contains greater number of nuclei : a $5.00- \mu Ci$ sample of $_{240}Pu$ (half-life $6560\,y$) or a $4.45 - \mu Ci$ sample of $_{243}Am$ (half-life $7370\, y$)
A heavy nucleus $Q$ of half-life $20$ minutes undergoes alpha-decay with probability of $60 \%$ and beta-decay with probability of $40 \%$. Initially, the number of Q nuclei is $1000$ . The number of alphadecays of $Q$ in the first one hour is
Give the different units of radioactivity and define them.
