The half-life period of radium is $1600$ years. The fraction of a sample of radium that would remain after $6400$ years is

$A$ freshly prepared radioactive source of half-life $2$ hours $30$ minutes emits radiation which is $64$ times the permissible safe level. The minimum time,after which it would be possible to work safely with the source,will be in hours.

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:

$A$ radioactive isotope $X$ has a half-life of $20$ years and decays into a stable element $Y$. In a given rock sample, the ratio of the amounts of $X$ and $Y$ is found to be $1:7$. The estimated age of the rock is ......... years.

If the half-life of an element is $69.3 \text{ hours}$,what percentage of it will decay between the $10^{\text{th}}$ and $11^{\text{th}}$ hours? (Initial activity $= 50 \mu Ci$)

Carbon-$14$ decays with a half-life of about $5,800$ years. In a sample of bone,the ratio of Carbon-$14$ to Carbon-$12$ is found to be $\frac{1}{4}$ of what it is in free air. This bone may belong to a period about $x$ centuries ago,where $x$ is nearest to:
