Question

10] 1.26

As part of her nuclear stress test, Simone starts to walk on the treadmill. When she reaches the maximum level, Paul injects a radioactive dye with 201Tl with an activity of 67 MBq . The radiation emitted from areas of her heart is detected by a scanner and produces images of her heart muscle. After Simone rests for 3 h, Paul injects more dye with 201Tl and she is placed under the scanner again. A second set of images of her heart muscle at rest is taken. When Simone's doctor reviews her scans, he assures her that she had normal blood flow to her heart muscle, both at rest and under stress.

If the half-life of 201Tl is 3.0 days, what is its activity, in megabecquerels after 3.0 days?

What is its activity in megabecquerels after 6.0 days?
