$A$ radioactive nucleus $A$ with a half-life $T$ decays into a nucleus $B$. At $t = 0$,there is no nucleus $B$. At some time $t$,the ratio of the number of $B$ nuclei to that of $A$ nuclei is $0.3$. Then,$t$ is given by:

  • A
    $t = \frac{T}{\log(1.3)}$
  • B
    $t = \frac{T}{2} \frac{\log 2}{\log 1.3}$
  • C
    $t = T \frac{\log 1.3}{\log 2}$
  • D
    $t = T \log(1.3)$
