In 5,595 seconds, the number of radioactive nuclei decreases to 1/16 of the number present initially. What is the half-life (in s) of the material? Enter an integer.
1/16 = 4 half life
4 half ife takes = 8854 s
1 half life = 8854/4 = 2213.5 = 2214 s

Two radioactive nuclei A and B are present in equal numbers to begin with. Three days later, there are 4.28 times as many A nuclei as there are B nuclei. The half-life of species B is 2.08 days. Find the half-life of species A (in days).
Two radioactive nuclei A and B are present in equal numbers to begin with. Three days later, there are 3.35 times as many A nuclei as there are B nuclei. The half-life of species B is 1.93 days. Find the half-life of species A (in days).
A radioactive sample contains two different types of radioactive nuclei: A, with half-life 9.0 days, and B, with half-life 18.0 days. Initially, the decay rate of the A-type nucleus is 256 times that of the B-type nucleus. 1) When will their decay rates be equal?
