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 mean lives of a radioactive sample are $30$ years and $60$ years for $\alpha$-emission and $\beta$-emission respectively. If the sample decays by both $\alpha$-emission and $\beta$-emission simultaneously,the time after which only one-fourth of the sample remains is:

Find the time in years required for $10\%$ of a radioactive sample to decay,given that its half-life is $22 \text{ years}$.

Starting with a sample of pure ${}^{66}Cu$,$\frac{7}{8}$ of it decays into $Zn$ in $15 \ minutes$. The corresponding half-life is .......... $minutes$.

At time $t=0$, a material is composed of two radioactive atoms $A$ and $B$, where $N_{A}(0)=2 N_{B}(0)$. The decay constant of both kinds of radioactive atoms is $\lambda$. However, $A$ disintegrates to $B$ and $B$ disintegrates to $C$. Which of the following figures represents the evolution of $N_{B}(t) / N_{B}(0)$ with respect to time $t$?
$N_{A}(0) = \text{Number of } A \text{ atoms at } t=0$
$N_{B}(0) = \text{Number of } B \text{ atoms at } t=0$

The initial activity of a certain radioactive isotope was measured as $16000 \ counts \ min^{-1}$. Given that the only activity measured was due to this isotope and that its activity after $12 \ h$ was $2000 \ counts \ min^{-1}$,its half-life,in hours,is nearest to
