A hydrogen atom, initially in the ground state is excited by absorbing a photon of wavelength 980$$\mathop A\limits^ \circ $$. The radius of the atom in the excited state, in terms of Bohr radius a₀ will be : (hc = 12500 eV$$\mathop A\limits^ \circ $$)

Consider the nuclear fission

Ne²⁰ $$ \to $$ 2He⁴ + C¹²

Given that the binding energy/ nucleon of Ne²⁰, He⁴ and C¹² are, respectively, 8.03 MeV, 7.07 MeV and 7.86 MeV, identify the correct statement -

Using a nuclear counter the count rate of emitted particles from a radioactive source is measured. At t = 0 it was 1600 counts per second and t = 8 seconds it was 100 counts per second. The count rate observed, as counts per second, at t = 6 seconds is close to -

At a given instant, say t = 0, two radioactive substance A and B have equal activities. the ratio $${{{R_B}} \over {{R_A}}}$$ of their activities after time t itself decays with time t as e^$$-$$3t. If the half-life of A is ln², the half-life of B is :
