The half-life of a radioactive sample undergoing $\alpha$-decay is $1.4 \times 10^{17} \; s$. If the number of nuclei in the sample is $2.0 \times 10^{21}$,the activity of the sample is nearly:

$A$ radioactive sample at any instant has its disintegration rate $5000$ disintegrations per minute. After $5\, minutes$,the rate becomes $1250$ disintegrations per minute. Then,its decay constant (per minute) is

If the half-life of radium is $77$ days,its decay constant in $day^{-1}$ will be:

Half-lives of two radioactive elements $A$ and $B$ are $30 \text{ minute}$ and $60 \text{ minute}$ respectively. Initially,the samples have an equal number of nuclei. After $120 \text{ minute}$,the ratio of the number of decayed nuclei of $B$ to that of $A$ will be:

The radioactivity of a sample at time $T_1$ is $R_1$ and at time $T_2$ is $R_2$. If the mean life of the sample is $T$,then the number of nuclei disintegrated in the time interval $(T_2 - T_1)$ is:

$A$ radioactive nuclide is produced at a constant rate of $n$ per second (e.g.,by bombarding a target with neutrons). If the number of nuclei at $t = 0$ is $N_0$,the number of nuclei $N$ at time $t$ is given by (where $\lambda$ is the decay constant):
