JEE Main & Advanced Sample Paper JEE Main Sample Paper-17

  • question_answer
    The radioactivity of a sample is\[{{R}_{1}}\]at time\[{{t}_{1}}\] and \[{{R}_{2}}\]at time \[{{t}_{2}}.\]Mean life of the specimen is T. The number of atoms that have disintegrated in the time interval \[({{t}_{2}}-{{t}_{1}})\]is

    A) \[{{R}_{1}}{{t}_{1}}-{{R}_{2}}{{t}_{2}}\]                 

    B) \[{{R}_{1}}-{{R}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[\frac{{{R}_{1}}-{{R}_{2}}}{T}\]                               

    D)  \[({{R}_{1}}-{{R}_{2}})T\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     \[{{R}_{1}}=\lambda {{N}_{1}}=\lambda {{N}_{0}}{{e}^{-\lambda {{t}_{1}}}}\] \[{{R}_{2}}=\lambda {{N}_{2}}=\lambda {{N}_{0}}{{e}^{-\lambda {{t}_{2}}}}\] Atoms which have been disintegrated in time \[{{t}_{2}}-{{t}_{1}}\]are: \[{{N}_{1}}-{{N}_{2}}=\frac{{{R}_{1}}-{{R}_{2}}}{\lambda }=({{R}_{1}}-{{R}_{2}})T\]
