Two different radioactive elements with half-lives $T_1$ and $T_2$ have undecayed atoms $N_1$ and $N_2$ respectively present at a given instant. The ratio of their activities at that instant is

The specific activity of radium is close to:

$A$ radioactive sample decays by two modes: $\alpha$-decay and $\beta$-decay. $66.6\%$ of the time it decays by $\alpha$-decay and $33.3\%$ of the time it decays by $\beta$-decay. If the effective half-life of the sample is $60 \text{ years}$,what will be the half-life of the sample if it decays only by $\alpha$-decay? (in years)
