easy

The sample of a radioactive substance has $10^6$ nuclei. Its half life is $20 \,s$. The number of nuclei that will be left after $10 \,s$ is nearly ...... $\times 10^5$

A

$1$

B

$2$

C

$7$

D

$11$

Solution

(c)

$N=N_0\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^n$

$n=\frac{1}{2}$

$N=10^6\left(\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}\right)$

$N=0.732 \times 10^6$

$N=7 \times 10^5$
