$A$ radioactive sample at any instant has its disintegration rate $5000$ disintegrations per minute. After $5$ minutes,the rate is $1250$ disintegrations per minute. Then,the decay constant (per minute) is (in $, \ln 2$)

The average life $T$ and the decay constant $\lambda$ of a radioactive nucleus are related as

At some instant,a radioactive sample $S_1$ having an activity $5\,\mu Ci$ has twice the number of nuclei as another sample $S_2$ which has an activity of $10\,\mu Ci$. The half-lives of $S_1$ and $S_2$ are:

Half-lives of two radioactive nuclei $A$ and $B$ are $10 \, minutes$ and $20 \, minutes$,respectively. If,initially,a sample has an equal number of nuclei,then after $60 \, minutes$,the ratio of the number of decayed nuclei of $A$ and $B$ will be:

If the decay or disintegration constant of a radioactive substance is $\lambda$,then its half-life and mean life are respectively:

Consider two nuclei of the same radioactive nuclide. One of the nuclei was created in a supernova explosion $5$ billion years ago. The other was created in a nuclear reactor $5$ minutes ago. The probability of decay during the next time interval is
