The graph represents the decay of a newly prepared sample of radioactive nuclide $X$ to a stable nuclide $Y$. The half-life of $X$ is $\tau$. The growth curve for $Y$ intersects the decay curve for $X$ after time $T$. What is the time $T$?

$A$ radioactive substance contains $10000$ nuclei and its half-life period is $20$ days. The number of nuclei present at the end of $10$ days is

An ancient discovery found a sample where $75 \%$ of the original carbon $(C^{14})$ remains. The age of the sample is: $\left(T_{1/2}(C^{14}) = 5730 \text{ years}, \ln 0.5 = -0.7, \ln 0.75 = -0.3\right)$ (in $\text{ years}$)

Decay constants of two radioactive samples $A$ and $B$ are $15x$ and $3x$ respectively. They have an equal number of initial nuclei. The ratio of the number of nuclei left in $A$ and $B$ after a time $t = \frac{1}{6x}$ is

The half-life period of a radioactive element $X$ is same as the mean life time of another radioactive element $Y$. Initially,they have the same number of atoms. Then:

${ }^{131} I$ is an isotope of Iodine that $\beta$ decays to an isotope of Xenon with a half-life of $8$ days. $A$ small amount of a serum labelled with ${ }^{131} I$ is injected into the blood of a person. The activity of the amount of ${ }^{131} I$ injected was $2.4 \times 10^5 \text{ Bq}$. It is known that the injected serum will get distributed uniformly in the blood stream in less than half an hour. After $11.5$ hours,$2.5 \text{ ml}$ of blood is drawn from the person's body,and gives an activity of $115 \text{ Bq}$. The total volume of blood in the person's body,in liters,is approximately (you may use $e^{x} \approx 1+x$ for $|x| \ll 1$ and $\ln 2 \approx 0.7$):
