$A$ neutron beam has a kinetic energy of $0.0837 \, eV$. Its half-life is $693 \, s$ and its mass is $1.675 \times 10^{-27} \, kg$. What fraction of the neutrons will remain undecayed after traveling a distance of $40 \, m$?

The ratio of the number of active nuclei in two different samples is $2:3$. Their half-lives are $2 \ hours$ and $3 \ hours$ respectively. After $12 \ hours$,the ratio of their activities will be:

$A$ sample of radioactive material has mass $m$,decay constant $\lambda$,and molar mass $M$. If the Avogadro constant is $N_A$,what is the initial activity of the sample?

${ }^{131} I$ is an isotope of Iodine that $\beta$ decays to an isotope of Xenon with a half-life of $8$ days. $A$ small amount of a serum labelled with ${ }^{131} I$ is injected into the blood of a person. The activity of the amount of ${ }^{131} I$ injected was $2.4 \times 10^5 \text{ Bq}$. It is known that the injected serum will get distributed uniformly in the blood stream in less than half an hour. After $11.5$ hours,$2.5 \text{ ml}$ of blood is drawn from the person's body,and gives an activity of $115 \text{ Bq}$. The total volume of blood in the person's body,in liters,is approximately (you may use $e^{x} \approx 1+x$ for $|x| \ll 1$ and $\ln 2 \approx 0.7$):

Write down the definition and formula of half-life of a radioactive substance.

$A$ radioactive element has a rate of disintegration $10,000$ disintegrations per minute at a particular instant. After four minutes it becomes $2500$ disintegrations per minute. The decay constant per minute is (in $log _e 2$)
