$A$ count rate meter shows a count of $240$ per minute from a given radioactive source. One hour later,the meter shows a count rate of $30$ per minute. The half-life of the source is .......... $min$.

The activity of a radioactive sample is measured as $N_0$ counts per minute at $t = 0$ and $N_0/e$ counts per minute at $t = 5\, \text{minutes}$. The time (in minutes) at which the activity reduces to half of its initial value is

The half-life of a radioactive substance is $5$ years. What is the probability of decay of this element in $10$ years?

Consider an initially pure $M \text{ g}$ sample of an isotope $X$ with mass number $A$,which has a half-life of $T \text{ hours}$. What is its initial decay rate? ($N_A$ = Avogadro number)

The half-life period of a radioactive element $X$ is same as the mean life time of another radioactive element $Y$. Initially,they have the same number of atoms. Then:

$A$ radioisotope $X$ with a half-life of $1.4 \times 10^{9} \text{ years}$ decays into $Y$,which is stable. $A$ sample of rock from a cave was found to contain $X$ and $Y$ in the ratio $1:7$. The age of the rock is ........ $\times 10^{9} \text{ years}$.
