JEE Main & Advanced Physics Nuclear Physics And Radioactivity Question Bank Self Evaluation Test - Nuclei

  • question_answer
    Let \[{{N}_{\beta }}\] be the number of p particles emitted by 1 gram of \[N{{a}^{24}}\] radioactive nuclei (half-life =15 hrs) in 7.5 hours, \[{{N}_{\beta }}\] is close to (Avogadro number \[=6.023\times {{10}^{23}}/g\text{ }mole\]):

    A)  \[6.2\times {{10}^{21}}\]

    B)  \[7.5\times {{10}^{21}}\]

    C)  \[1.25\times {{10}^{22}}\]

    D)  \[1.75\times {{10}^{22}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] We know that \[{{N}_{\beta }}={{N}_{0}}(1-{{e}^{-\lambda t}})\] \[{{N}_{\beta }}=\frac{6.023\times {{10}^{23}}}{24}\left[ 1-e\frac{\ell \,n\,2}{15}\times 7.5 \right]\] on solving we get, \[{{N}_{\beta }}=7.4\times {{10}^{21}}\] If \[\alpha \] and B are emitted simultaneously.
