A freshly isolated sample of 90Y was found to have an activity of 2.5 ×105 disintegrations per minute at 1:00 p.m. on December 3, 2006. At 2:15 p.m. on December 17, 2006, its activity was measured again and found to be 6.6 ×103disintegrations per minute. Calculate the half-life of 90Y. Enter your answer in scientific notation.

You are working in a facility with a linear accelerator which may be used to measure the level of C in a variety of samples (vegetable, mineral and animal). An archaeologist working on a dig on Stewart Island brings you a plece of an artifact found at the site and asks you to age it for them. You find that that the sample contained wood that had only 53% of the "C found in living trees. The half-life for radioactive decay of C is 5730 yr (it emits B-rays with an energy of 0.16 MeV). What is its age? [c]-["c), expl-kt)
