In radioactive dating using carbon-14 and carbon-12, why is it essential that carbon-12 be a stable isotope?
Ruthenium-106 (106Ru) is used to treat melanoma in the eye. This isotope decays by β– emission with a half-life of 373.59 days. One source of the isotope is reprocessed nuclear reactor fuel. How many protons and neutrons does the 106Ru nucleus contain? Identify the missing daughter nucleus in the β– emission decay of 106Ru below. How many years after 106Ru is implanted in the eye does it take for its decay rate (or activity) to be reduced to 27.5% of the initial decay rate? Use 1 year = 365 days.
1. (a) The amount of U-238 in a sample decays exponetially. Every 2 billion years, 27% of the sample remains. If U(t) is the percentage of the sample remaining after t billion years, find a formula for U(t)? (If you are unable to do part (a), you may use the function U(t) =80e-/3 for the remaining parts). (b) Find the relative growth rate r, the constant growth factor b, and continuous growth rate k. (c) way to do this problem very easily.) Find the percentage change of U(t) between on the interval (3000, 3001). (Hint: there is a
