The activity of a radioactive element reduces to (1//16)th of its original value in 30 years. Find its half life?

Find the half-life period of a radioactive material if its activity drops of (1/16)^(th) of its initial value in 40 years.

Radioactive disintegration is a first order reaction and it's rate depends only upon the nature of nucleus and does not depend upon external factors like temoperature an pressure. The rate of radioactive disintigration (Activity) is respresented as (-d(N))/(dt)=lambdaN Where lambda =decay consatant, N= number of nuclei at time t, N""_(0) =initial no. of nucleei.
