An alloy is composed of two radioactive materials $A$ and $B$ having equal weight. The half-lives of $A$ and $B$ are $10 \ yrs$ and $20 \ yrs$ respectively. After time $t$, the alloy was found to consist of $(1/e) \ kg$ of $A$ and $1 \ kg$ of $B$. If the atomic weights of $A$ and $B$ are the same, then the value of $t$ is (Assume $\ln 2 = 0.7$):
