In an accelerator experiment on high energy collisions of electrons with positron, a certain event is interprected as annihilation of an electron-positron pair of total energy 10.2 BeV into two gamma -rays of equal energy. What is the wavelength associated with each gamma -ray ? (1 BeV=10^(9)eV)

Co^57 decays to Fe^57 by beta^+ -emission.The resulting Fe^57 is in its excited state and comes to the ground state by emitting gamma -rays.The half-life of beta^+ -decay is 270 days and that of the gamma -emission is 10^(-8) s.A sample of Co^57 given 5.0xx10^9 gamma rays per second.How much time will elapse before the emission rate of gamma rays drops to 2.5xx10^9 per second ?
