Half-lives of two radioactive substances $A$ and $B$ are,respectively,$20 \ min$ and $40 \ min$. Initially,the samples of $A$ and $B$ have an equal number of nuclei. After $80 \ min$,the ratio of the remaining number of $A$ and $B$ nuclei is

$A$ parent nucleus $X$ undergoes $\alpha$-decay with a half-life of $75000 \text{ yrs}$. The daughter nucleus $Y$ undergoes $\beta$-decay with a half-life of $9 \text{ months}$. In a particular sample,it is found that the rate of emission of $\beta$-particles is nearly constant (over several months) at $10^{7} / \text{h}$. What will be the number of $\alpha$-particles emitted in an hour?

$A$ radioactive material of half-life $T$ was kept in a nuclear reactor at two different instants. The quantity kept the second time was twice that kept the first time. If their present activities are $A_1$ (first) and $A_2$ (second) respectively,then their age difference is equal to:

Which one of the following nuclei has a shorter mean life?

$A$ radioactive element has a rate of disintegration of $8000$ disintegrations per minute at a particular instant. After $4$ minutes,it becomes $2000$ disintegrations per minute. The decay constant per minute is: (in $log _e 2$)

Number of nuclei of a radioactive substance at time $t = 0$ are $1000$ and $900$ at time $t = 2 \, s$. Then number of nuclei at time $t = 4 \, s$ will be
