Exponential Decay The amount of radioactive material present at time r is given by A Age", where A, is the initial amount, k<0 is the rate of decay. Radioactive substances are more commonly described in terms of their half-life or the time required for half of the substance to decompose. Determine the half-life of substance X if after 600 years, a sample has decayed to 85% of its original mass.

Differential Equations

Have you ever observed the movement of the satellites and rockets or how the planets go around the sun in their orbits? How will you determine their motion? Definitely they follow some scientific laws and these kinds of problems are framed as differential equations.
