Radioactivity - Nuclei
Question

Activities of three radioactive substances A,B and C are represented by the curves  A,B and C in the figure . Then their half lives T12A:T12B:T12C are in the ratio :

Moderate
Solution

Activity, R=R02-tth lnR=lnR0 -ln2thtComparing with straight line, y=c+mx , slope=m=-ln2thmA=6/10  fromslopemB=6/5mC=2/5Since, slope 1half lifeTA:TB:TC=106:56:52 = 20:10:30=2:1:3
