After 300 days, the activity of a radioactive sample is 5000 dps (disintegrations per sec). The activity becomes 2500 dps after another 150 days. The initial activity of the sample in dps is

After 200 days the activity of a radioactive sample reduces to 8000 dps. After another 100 days the activity reduces to 8000/sqrt(2) dps. It can be said that:

A solution contains a mixture of two isotopes A (half-life=10days) and B (half-life=5days). Total activity of the mixture is 10^10 disintegration per second at time t=0 . The activity reduces to 20% in 20 days. Find (a) the initial activities of A and B, (b) the ratio of initial number of their nuclei.

The half lives of two longest-lived radioactive isotopes of phosphorus P^(32) and P^(33) , are 14 days and 28 days respectively. A sample has been prepared by mxing the two isotopes in the ratio of 4:1 of their atoms. Initial activity of the mixed sample is 9.0mCi. Find the activity of the sample after 80 days. Take ln2=0.7 and e^(-2)=0.14
