Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The age of the uranium rock is to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Half-life is the time in which an unstable radioactive nuclei is reduced to half of its initial amount or it is the time required by an unstable radioactive nuclei to fall to half of its starting value. 

Nuclei with short half-life are very active but are not active for long.
