The time of decay for the nuclear reacti...

The time of decay for the nuclear reaction is given by `t = 5t_(1//2)`. The relation between mean life `tau` and time of decay t is given by:

A

`2 tau` In 2

B

`5 tau` In 2

C

`2 tau^(4)` In 2

D

`(1)/(tau^(4))` In 2

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
b
`t = 5t_(1//2)`
`t = 5 xx (In 2)/(lambda)`
`t = 5 tau` In 2
