Given that,
Half lives of sample A = T₁
Half lives of sample B = T₂
At t=0,the activity of B was twice the activity of A.
Consider initial activity of nuclei A and b be A₀ and 2A₀ respectively at a time t their activity is
For A,
.....(I)
For B,
.....(II)
We need to calculate the activity after time
From equation (I) by equation (II)
Taking log on both side
Put the value into the formula
Hence, Their activity will becomes equal after time is
