Carbon dating is best suited for determining the age of fossils if their age in years is of the order of

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 $n = \frac{\text{time elapsed}}{\text{half-life period}}$.

After five half-lives, the percentage of original radioactive atoms left is ...... $ \%$

$A$ radioactive element has a rate of disintegration $10,000$ disintegrations per minute at a particular instant. After four minutes it becomes $2500$ disintegrations per minute. The decay constant per minute is (in $log _e 2$)

An accident in a nuclear laboratory resulted in the deposition of a certain amount of radioactive material with a half-life of $18$ days inside the laboratory. Tests revealed that the radiation level was $64$ times higher than the permissible level required for safe operation. What is the minimum number of days after which the laboratory can be considered safe for use?

The natural logarithm of the activity $R$ of a radioactive sample varies with time $t$ as shown. At $t=0$,there are $N_0$ undecayed nuclei. Then,$N_0$ is equal to [Take $e^2=7.5$].
