Some nuclei of a radioactive material are undergoing radioactive decay. The time gap between the instances when a quarter of the nuclei have decayed and when half of the nuclei have decayed is given as :

(where $$\lambda$$ is the decay constant)

The half-life of $${}^{198}Au$$ is 3 days. If atomic weight of $${}^{198}Au$$ is 198 g/mol then the activity of 2 mg of $${}^{198}Au$$ is [in disintegration/second] :

A nucleus with mass number 184 initially at rest emits an $$\alpha$$-particle. If the Q value of the reaction is 5.5 MeV, calculate the kinetic energy of the $$\alpha$$-particle.

For a certain radioactive process the graph between In R and t(sec) is obtained as shown in the figure. Then the value of half life for the unknown radioactive material is approximately :
