n alpha particles per second are emitted from N atoms of a radioactive element. Then find the half life of radioactive element ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To find the half-life of a radioactive element when \( n \) alpha particles are emitted per second from \( N \) atoms, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the decay process The rate of decay of a radioactive substance is proportional to the number of undecayed nuclei present. This can be expressed mathematically as: \[ \frac{dN}{dt} = -\lambda N \] where: ...

What is the total life of a radioactive element ?

Many unstable nuclie can decay spontaneously to a nucleus of lower mass but differnet combination of nucleons. The process of spontaneous emission of radiation is called radioactivity substance. Radioactive decay is a statistical process. Radiaactivity is independent of all external conditions. The number of decays per unit time or decay rate is called activity. Activity exponentially decrease with time. Mean lifetime is always greater than half-life time. n number of alpha -particels per second are being emitted by B atoms of a radioactive element. The half-life of element will be
