$A$ sample contains $10^{-2} \ kg$ each of two substances $A$ and $B$ with half-lives $4 \ s$ and $8 \ s$ respectively. The ratio of their atomic weights is $1:2$. The ratio of the amounts (number of atoms) of $A$ and $B$ remaining after $16 \ s$ is $\frac{x}{100}$. The value of $x$ is:

The decay constant of a radioactive substance is $0.173 \, (years)^{-1}.$ Therefore:

The activity of a sample of radioactive material is $A_1$ at time $t_1$ and $A_2$ at time $t_2$ $(t_2 > t_1)$. If its mean life is $T$,then which of the following is true?

$A$ sample of a radioactive element contains $4 \times 10^{16}$ active nuclei. If the half-life of the element is $10$ days,then the number of decayed nuclei after $30$ days is ........ $\times 10^{16}$.

The half-life of a radioactive substance is $20 \ min$. The time interval between $20\%$ decay and $80\%$ decay is ......... $min$.

An accident in a nuclear laboratory resulted in the deposition of a certain amount of radioactive material with a half-life of $18$ days inside the laboratory. Tests revealed that the radiation level was $64$ times higher than the permissible level required for safe operation. What is the minimum number of days after which the laboratory can be considered safe for use?
