A) 10 years and 20 years, respectively
B) 5 years and 20 years, respectively
C) 20 years and 10 years, respectively
D) 20 years and 5 years, respectively
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
For sample 1 we can write, \[{{N}_{1}}={{N}_{o1}}{{e}^{-{{\lambda }_{1}}t}}\] \[{{N}_{2}}={{N}_{o2}}{{e}^{-{{\lambda }_{2}}t}}\] Given that at a particular time t\[{{N}_{1}}=2{{N}_{2}}\] Also given that For sample 1, \[{{A}_{1}}=-\frac{d{{N}_{1}}}{dt}={{N}_{o1}}{{\lambda }_{1}}{{e}^{-{{\lambda }_{1}}t}}=5\mu {{C}_{i}}\] \[{{A}_{2}}=-\frac{d{{N}_{2}}}{dt}={{N}_{o2}}{{\lambda }_{2}}{{e}^{-{{\lambda }_{2}}t}}=10\mu {{C}_{i}}\] Solving above equations we get, \[\frac{{{\lambda }_{1}}}{{{\lambda }_{2}}}=\frac{1}{4}\] \[\frac{half\,life\,{{e}_{1}}}{half\,life\,{{e}_{2}}}=\frac{\ln 2}{{{\lambda }_{1}}}\times \frac{{{\lambda }_{2}}}{\ln 2}=4\]You need to login to perform this action.
