A radioactive sample has a half-life of 1770 years. At some instant, 20% of the sample has decayed. If taking this instant as t = t1, it is found that at t = t2, 20% of the sample is left, then t2 - t1 is:

1.  1770 years

2.  885 years

3.  2655 years

4.  3540 years

Binding energy per nucleon of a fixed nucleus \({}^{A}\mathrm{X}\) is \(8\) MeV. It absorbs a neutron moving with kinetic energy \(4\) MeV and converts into \(Y\) emitting a photon of energy \(2\) MeV. The binding energy per nucleon of \(Y\) (in MeV) is:
1. \(\dfrac{8 A + 2}{A + 1}\) 2. \(\dfrac{8 A - 2}{A + 1}\)
3. \(\dfrac{8 A - 1}{A + 1}\) 4. \(\dfrac{8 A}{A + 1}\)
