The rate of disintegration of a radioactive sample is R and the number of atoms presentat any time t is N. When R/N is taken along Y-axis and t is taken along X-axis, the correct graphs is

Answer»




Solution :Law of radioactive decay is given as ,

`(dN)/DT = -lambda N `
where,`(dN)/dt=`
rate of disintegration
So,
`R = -lambda N RARR R/N = - lambda =` constant
where, `lambda= ` decay constant
So, the graph `R/N` VERSUS t is as,
So the CORRECT graph shown in option (d).
