Explanation / Answer

Ans 2

For the decay of radioactive substance

Nt = N0 x exp (-kt)

No = Initial amount of radioactive substance = 360"Ci

k = decay constant =?

t = time taken = 50 years

Nt = Amount of radioactive substance present after time t

= 135 Ci

135 = 350 x exp(-50k)

0.3857 = exp(-50k)

0.9527 = 50k

k = 0.01905 / year

Option A is the correct answer
