What is the half-life (in years) of a radioactive material if its activity drops to $1/16$th of its initial value in $30$ years (in $.5$)?

$A$ radioactive nucleus $A$ has a single decay mode with half-life $\tau_A$. Another radioactive nucleus $B$ has two decay modes $1$ and $2$. If decay mode $2$ were absent,the half-life of $B$ would have been $\tau_A / 2$. If decay mode $1$ were absent,the half-life of $B$ would have been $3 \tau_A$. If the actual half-life of $B$ is $\tau_B$,then the ratio $\tau_B / \tau_A$ is

In a radioactive element,the fraction of the initial amount remaining after its mean lifetime is:

The activity of an element becomes $\frac{1}{64}$ of its original value in $60 \ s$. Then the half-life period is ............ $s$.

If $T$ is the half-life of a radioactive substance,then its instantaneous rate of change of activity is proportional to
