The equation $ _{88}Ra^{226}\rightarrow _{86}Rn^{222}+ _{2}He^{4}$ emits which particle?
During $\beta^-$ emission:
Nuclei of a radioactive element $A$ are being produced at a constant rate $\alpha$. The element has a decay constant $\lambda$. At $t =0$, there are $N _{0}$ nuclei of the element.
If $\alpha = 2N _{0}\lambda$, calculate the number of nuclei of $A$ after one half life of $A$, and also the limiting value of $N$ as $t\rightarrow \infty$.
$90$% of a radioactive sample is left undecayed after time $t$ has elapsed. What percentage of the intial sample will decay in a total time $2t$:
