TOPIC: ELEMENTARY MODERN PHYSICS

DIRECTION: Choose the correct answer from the lettered options.

1. Find the half-life of radio-isotope which has a decay constant 0.000456.

 A. 1520 days.

 B. 1248 days.

 C. 2560 days.

 D. 1452 days.

The correct answer is option [A].

Using the equation T½ = 0.693/λ

where λ = 0.000456/day, therefore, T½ = 0.693/0.000456days ≈ 1520days.
