$A$ sample of rock from the moon contains an equal number of atoms of uranium and lead ($t_{1/2}$ for $U = 4.5 \times 10^9$ years). The age of the rock would be:

The half-life of $_6C^{14}$,if its decay constant is $6.31 \times 10^{-4} \ yr^{-1}$,is ....... $yrs$.

$t_{1/2}$ of $^{232}Th$ is $1.39 \times 10^{10} \ \text{years}$. Calculate the number of $\alpha$-particles emitted by $1.0 \ \text{g}$ of $^{232}Th$ per second.

Given that a radioactive species decays according to the exponential law $N = N_0 e^{-\lambda t}$,the half-life of the species is:

To determine the half-life of a radioactive element,a student plots a graph of $\ln|dN(t)/dt|$ versus $t$. Here $dN(t)/dt$ is the rate of radioactive decay at time $t$. If the number of radioactive nuclei of this element decreases by a factor of $p$ after $4.16 \ \text{years}$,the value of $p$ is

$A$ radioactive isotope has a half-life of $20 \ days$. If $100 \ g$ of the substance is taken,the weight of the isotope remaining after $40 \ days$ is ......... $g$.
