certain radioactive material is known to decay at a rate proportional o the amount present. If initially there are 100 milligrams of the naterial present and if after two years it is observed that 5% of the riginal mass has decayed, find (a) an expression for the mass at any me t and (b) the time necessary for the 10% of the original mass to ave decayed.
