MCQ
A radioactive nucleus decays by two different processes. The half life for the first process is $10\, s$ and that for the second is $100 s$. the effective half life of the nucleus is close to$.....sec$
  • $9$
  • B
    $55$
  • C
    $6$
  • D
    $12$

Answer

Correct option: A.
$9$
a
$\frac{1}{ T _{\text {eff }}}=\frac{1}{ T _{1}}+\frac{1}{ T _{2}}$

$T _{ eff }=\frac{ T _{1} T _{2}}{ T _{1}+ T _{2}}=\frac{1000}{110}=\frac{100}{11}=9.09$

$T _{ eff } \cong 9$
