The half-life of cobalt-60 is 5.3 years, while that of strontium-90 is 28 years.
 
  Suppose that samples of cobalt-60 and strontium-90 are such that they initially have the same activity (number of decays per second). What is true about the initial numbers of cobalt-60 and strontium-90 nuclei in these samples?
  A) There are equal numbers of cobalt-60 and strontium-90 nuclei.
  B) There are more cobalt-60 than strontium-90 nuclei.
  C) It is not possible to compare numbers of nuclei without knowing the masses of the samples.
  D) There are more strontium-90 than cobalt-60 nuclei.

Question 2

Two equal charges Q are separated by a distance d. One of the charges is released and moves away from the other due to the force between them. When the moving charge is a distance 3d from the other charge, what is its kinetic energy?
