Two samples of the same radioactive nuclide are prepared. Sample G hadms twice the initial activity of sample H. How does the half-life of G compare with the half-life of H?
(A) it is two times larger than that of G
(B) it is thev same as that of G
(C) it is half of that of G
(D) it is larger than that of G 4 times.
Using the information on atomic masses given below, show that a nucleus of uranium 238 can disintegrate with the emission of an alpha particle according to the reaction (238_92U) → (234_90Th) + (4_2He). Calculate
(a) the total energy released in the disintegration
(b) the kinetic energy of the alpha particle, the nucleus being at rest before disintegration. Mass of (238_92U) = 23812492 a.m.u. Mass of (234_90Th) = 23411650 a.m.u. Mass of (4_2He) = 400387 a.m.u where 1 a.m.u is equivalent to 930 MeV.
Explain the meaning of:
(i) radioactive isotope
(ii) half-life
(iii) alpha-particles beta particles and gamma rays
