(X) A radioactive material decays at a rate proportional to the population present at time t. After 6 hours, the material has decreased by 87.5% (remained 12.5%). What is the half-life of this material? 24 a) d) 2 c) b) 4
I only need help with part c). Thanks!
As a radioactive specimen decays, its activity decreases exponentially as the number of radioactive atoms diminishes. Some radioactive species have mean lives in the millions (or even billions) of years, so their exponential decay is not readily apparent. On the other hand, many species have mean lives of minutes or hours, for their exponential decay is easily observed. According to the exponential decay law, the number of radioactive atoms that remain after...
