Chapter 1.4, Problem 36P

(Radiocarbon dating) Carbon taken from a purported relic of the time of Christ contained 4.6 × 10 4 atoms of 14 C per gram. Carbon extracted from a present-day specimen of the same substance contained 5.0 × 10 10 atoms of 14 C per gram. Compute the approximate age of the relic. What is your opinion as to its authenticity?
