Bryce tracks his mice's health diligently and just now recorded their masses as m₁ = 0.0145 kg, m2 = 0.0141 kg, m3 = 0.0245 kg, and m4 = 0.0105 kg.

- The carbon isotope 14C is used for carbon dating of archeological artifacts. 14C (mass 2.34 x 10-26 kg) decays by the process known as beta decay in which the nucleus emits an electron (the beta particle) and a subatomic particle called a neutrino. In one such decay, the electron and the neutrino are emitted at right angles to each other.
