A radioiostope `X` has a half-life of `10 s`. Find the number of nuclei in the sample (if initially there are `1000` isotopes which are falling from rest from a height of `3000 m` ) when it is at a height of `1000 m` from refrence plane.

A

`50xx10^(20)`

B

`250xx10^(20)`

C

`29xx10^(20)`

D

`100xx10^(20)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Calculate time when it reaches a height of `100m`, then use `A=lambdaN`.
