$A$ common example of alpha decay is ${ }_{92}^{238} U \longrightarrow{ }_{90}^{234} Th +{ }_{2}^{4} He + Q$. (Given: ${ }_{92}^{238} U = 238.05060 \, u$,${ }_{90}^{234} Th = 234.04360 \, u$,${ }_{2}^{4} He = 4.00260 \, u$,and $1 \, u = 931.5 \, MeV/c^2$). The energy released $(Q)$ during the alpha decay of ${ }_{92}^{238} U$ is $...... \, MeV$.

The energy spectrum of $\beta$-particles [number $N(E)$ as a function of $\beta$-energy $E$] emitted from a radioactive source is

In a radioactive sample,${ }_{19}^{40} K$ nuclei decay into stable ${ }_{20}^{40} Ca$ nuclei with a decay constant of $4.5 \times 10^{-10} \text{ per year}$ or into stable ${ }_{18}^{40} Ar$ nuclei with a decay constant of $0.5 \times 10^{-10} \text{ per year}$. Given that in this sample,all the stable ${ }_{20}^{40} Ca$ and ${ }_{18}^{40} Ar$ nuclei are produced by the ${ }_{19}^{40} K$ nuclei only. In time $t \times 10^9 \text{ years}$,if the ratio of the sum of stable ${ }_{20}^{40} Ca$ and ${ }_{18}^{40} Ar$ nuclei to the radioactive ${ }_{19}^{40} K$ nuclei is $99$,the value of $t$ will be: [Given $\ln 10 = 2.3$]
