A radioactive sample decays with a mean life of 20 millisecond. A capacitor of capacitance 100 µF is charged to some potential and then the plates are connected through a wire of resistance R. What should be the value of R in ohm so that the ratio of the charge on the capacitor to the activity of the radioactive sample remain constant in time?
