For a substance the average life for α - emission is1620years and for β emission is405years. After how much time the14thof the material remains by simultaneous emission?

Options:

Answer:
C
Solution:

Taug=1/λ

1/ λ α = 1620 ⇒ λ α = 1 1620 years

1/ λ β = 405 ⇒ λ β = 1 405 years

N = No e - λ α + λ β t

No 4 = No e - λ α + λ β t

2ln2 = 1 1620 + 1 405 t = t 324

t = 648 ln2 = 449 years
