- MCQ
A radioactive sample disintegrates via two independent decay processes having half lives \(T _{1 / 2}^{(1)}\) and \(T _{1 / 2}^{(2)}\) respectively. The effective half- life \(T _{1 / 2}\) of the nuclei is
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(T _{1 / 2}=\frac{ T _{1 / 2}^{(1)} T _{1 / 2}^{(2)}}{ T _{1 / 2}^{(1)}+ T _{1 / 2}^{(2)}}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\lambda_{ eq }=\lambda_{1}+\lambda_{2}\)
\(\frac{1}{ T _{1 / 2}}=\frac{1}{ T _{1 / 2}^{(1)}}+\frac{1}{ T _{1 / 2}^{(2)}}\)
\(T _{1 / 2}=\frac{ T _{1 / 2}^{(1)} T _{1 / 2}^{(2)}}{ T _{1 / 2}^{(1)}+ T _{1 / 2}^{(2)}}\)
