the radioactive nuclide of plutonium Pu(mass no= 239 ,proton=94),
decays by alpha-particle emission with a half-life of 2.4X10^4 years.
The alpha-particle energy is 8.2X10^ -13 J
A small power souce to generate 2.5W is to be made from the plutonium isotope.
1) show that the rate of decay of the plutonium must be at least 3 X 10^12 Bq?
