If a radioactive element having half-life of \(30\,min\) is undergoing beta decay, the fraction of radioactive element remains undecayed after \(90\,min\). will be :
Pick an option to check your answer.
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(\frac{1}{8}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\(\frac{ N }{ N _0}=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{ t / t \frac{1}{2}}=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^{\frac{90}{30}}\)
\(\frac{ N }{ N _0}=\left(\frac{1}{2}\right)^3=\frac{1}{8}\)
