What mass in $\mu g$ of $Th^{227}$ is required to produce an activity of $1 \ mCi$ if its half-life is $1.9 \ \text{years}$?

The decay constants of a radioactive substance for $\alpha$ and $\beta$ emission are $\lambda_{\alpha}$ and $\lambda_{\beta}$ respectively. If the substance emits $\alpha$ and $\beta$ simultaneously,then the average half-life of the material will be:

Two different radioactive elements with half-lives $T_1$ and $T_2$ have undecayed atoms $N_1$ and $N_2$ respectively present at a given instant. The ratio of their activities at that instant is

Assertion : If the half-life of a radioactive substance is $40 \ days$,then $25\%$ of the substance decays in $20 \ days$.
Reason : $N = N_0 \left( \frac{1}{2} \right)^n$,where $n = \frac{\text{time elapsed}}{\text{half-life period}}$.

$A$ freshly prepared radioactive sample of half-life $1$ hour emits radiations that are $128$ times as intense as the permissible safe limit. The minimum time after which this sample can be safely used is ......... $hours$.

In a radioactive decay process,the activity is defined as $A = -\frac{dN}{dt}$,where $N(t)$ is the number of radioactive nuclei at time $t$. Two radioactive sources,$S_1$ and $S_2$,have the same activity at time $t = 0$. At a later time,the activities of $S_1$ and $S_2$ are $A_1$ and $A_2$,respectively. When $S_1$ and $S_2$ have just completed their $3^{\text{rd}}$ and $7^{\text{th}}$ half-lives,respectively,the ratio $A_1/A_2$ is:
