The fossil bone has a ${}^{14}C:{}^{12}C$ ratio,which is $\frac{1}{16}$ of that in a living animal bone. If the half-life of ${}^{14}C$ is $5730 \, years$,then the age of the fossil bone is .......... $years$.

The activity of a radioactive material is $2.56 \times 10^{-3} \, Ci$. If the half-life of the material is $5 \, \text{days}$, after how many days will the activity become $2 \times 10^{-5} \, Ci$?

$A$ parent nucleus $X$ decays into a daughter nucleus $Y$,which in turn decays into $Z$. The half-lives of $X$ and $Y$ are $40000 \, yr$ and $20 \, yr$,respectively. In a certain sample,it is found that the number of $Y$ nuclei hardly changes with time. If the number of $X$ nuclei in the sample is $4 \times 10^{20}$,the number of $Y$ nuclei present in it is

$A$ radioactive element decays to form a stable nuclide. The rate of decay of the reactant $\left( \frac{dN}{dt} \right)$ will vary with time $(t)$ as shown in which figure?

$A$ radioactive sample decays by two modes: $\alpha$-decay and $\beta$-decay. $66.6 \%$ of the time it decays by $\alpha$-decay and $33.3 \%$ of the time it decays by $\beta$-decay. If the half-life of the sample is $60 \text{ years}$,what will be the half-life of the sample if it decays only by $\alpha$-decay?

$N$ atoms of a radioactive element emit $n$ alpha particles per second. The half-life of the element is:
