    The decay constant of a radioactive substance is\[\lambda .\] The half life and mean life of substance are respectively given by

    A)  \[\frac{1}{\lambda }\text{and}\frac{{{\log }_{e}}2}{\lambda }\]   

    B)         \[\frac{{{\log }_{e}}2}{\lambda }\text{and}\frac{1}{\lambda }\]

    C)  \[\frac{\lambda }{{{\log }_{e}}2}\text{and}\,\frac{1}{\lambda }\]            

    D)         \[\frac{\lambda }{{{\log }_{e}}2}\text{and}\,\text{2}\lambda \]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    If decay constant is\[\lambda ,\] Mean life \[\tau =\frac{1}{\lambda }\] and Half life\[=\frac{{{\log }_{e}}2}{\lambda }\]
