Which is true regarding the penetrating power of radiation?
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]

Gamma radiation have the most penetrating power. It can penetrate through human body, aluminum and other metals. It can be stopped by lead. Hence, the radioactive waste are stored in lead container for safety purposes. The beta ray has more penetrating power than the alpha but less than gamma. The beta radiations can be stopped by aluminum. The alpha radiations have least penetrating power and it can be stopped by human hands.

The half-life for beta decay of strontium-90 is 28.8 years. a milk sample is found to contain 10.3 ppm strontium-90. how many ye
ryzh [129]

Answer : The correct answer is 96.68 yrs

Radioactivity Decay :

it is a process in which a nucleus of unstable atom emit energy in form of radiations like alpha particle , beta particle etc .

Radioactive decay follows first order kinetics , so its rate , rate constant , amount o isotopes can be calculated using first order equations .

The first order equation for radioactive decay can be expressed as :

ln \frac{N}{N_0}  = - k*t ----------- equation (1)

Where : N = amount of radioisotope after time "t"

N₀ = Initial amount of radioisotope

k = decay constant and t = time

Following steps can be used to find time :

1) To find deacy constant :

Decay constant can be calculated using half life . Decay constant and half life can be related as :

T _\frac{1}{2} = \frac{ln2}{k} ---------equation (2)

Given : Half life of Strontium -90 = 28.8 years

Plugging value of T_\frac{1}{2} in above formula (equation 2) :

28.8 yrs = \frac{ln 2}{ k }

Multiply both side by k

28.8 yrs * k = \frac{ln 2 }{k} * k

Dividing both side by 28.8 yrs

\frac{28.8 yrs * k}{28.8 yrs} = \frac{ln 2}{28.8 yrs}

(ln 2 = 0.693 )

k = 0.0241 yrs⁻¹

Step 2 : To find time :

Given : N₀ = 10.3 ppm N = 1.0 ppm k = 0.0241 yrs⁻¹

Plugging these value in equation (1) as :

ln (\frac{1.0 ppm}{10.3 ppm} ) = - 0.0241 yrs^-^1 * t

ln (0.0971 ) = -0.0241 yrs ^-^1 * t

(ln 0.0971 = - 2.33 )

Dividing both side by - 0.0241 yrs⁻¹

\frac{-2.33}{-0.0241 yrs^-^1} = \frac{-0.0241 yrs^-^1 * t}{-0.0241 yrs^-^1}

t = 96.68 yrs

Hence the concentration of Strontium-90 will drop from 10.3 ppm to 1.0 ppm is 96.68 yrs
