$A$ radioactive substance in a laboratory has a half-life of $2 \text{ hours}$. It is considered safe for laboratory use when its activity reduces to $1/64$ of its initial value. After how many hours will the laboratory be safe?

The fossil bone has a ${}^{14}C:{}^{12}C$ ratio,which is $\frac{1}{16}$ of that in a living animal bone. If the half-life of ${}^{14}C$ is $5730 \, years$,then the age of the fossil bone is .......... $years$.

$A$ radioactive material decays by simultaneous emission of two particles with respective half-lives $1620$ years and $810$ years. The time (in years) after which one-fourth of the material remains is:

$A$ radioactive sample has an average life of $30 \, ms$ and is decaying. $A$ capacitor of capacitance $200 \, \mu F$ is first charged and later connected with a resistor $R$. If the ratio of charge on the capacitor to the activity of the radioactive sample is fixed with respect to time,then the value of $R$ should be $.... \, \Omega$.

There are two radionuclei $A$ and $B.$ $A$ is an alpha emitter and $B$ is a beta emitter. Their disintegration constants are in the ratio of $1 : 2.$ What should be the ratio of the number of atoms of the two at time $t = 0$ so that the probabilities of getting $\alpha$ and $\beta$ particles are the same at time $t = 0$?

In a sample of radioactive material,what percentage of the initial number of active nuclei will decay during one mean life?
