Law of Radioactive decay;, Statement; It states that the number of nuclei undergoing, radioactive decay per unit time is proportional to the total number, of nuclei in the sample., , This, , is called, , Decay, , Equation, , .

Half life of a radioactive substance, It is defined as the time during which half the number of atoms present, in a sample of radioactive substance will be left undecayed in the, sample. It is denoted by, , Ty, , ,, , Q. Find the relation between the half life and the decay constant, Ans: Suppose a radioactive substance has N 0 atoms at t= 0., Then the no.of atoms N left undecayed in the sample after time t is given, ✗t, by, N, ①, No e=, , when, , t, N, , Then, , her, , -, , =, , =, , ①, , Ti, , ,, , NI, becomes, , ¥, , =, , I, , =, , e-, , 2, , =, , e, , bn, , 2, , I, , +, , ✗I, , ✗%, , =, , ✗ Ty, , ,, , ✗, , i., , No e-, , =, , In, , 2, , I, , ✗, , Ty, , Stay life, , T, , ,, , =, , =, , =, , 0¥13, , 0.693, , 06,93T
