Two radioactive materials $X_1$ and $X_2$ have decay constants $10 \lambda$ and $\lambda$ respectively. If initially they have the same number of nuclei,then the ratio of the number of nuclei of $X_1$ to that of $X_2$ will be $1 / e$ after a time:

  • A
    $1 / (10 \lambda)$
  • B
    $1 / (11 \lambda)$
  • C
    $11 / (10 \lambda)$
  • D
    $1 / (9 \lambda)$
