Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Age of the mummy should be determined from the following given information.

Concept Introduction:

Radioactive dating is a technique for the determination of the "age" of a mineral sample by determining the presence of the relative amounts of radioactive elements. Age is thetime passed from when themineral samplewas formed.

In Carbon dating orcarbon-14 dating, the “age” of an organicspecimenis concludedby exploiting the properties of a radioactive carbon isotope or radiocarbon.

The rate of decay of any radioactive isotope is calculated in half-life. Thisterm is defined as the time taken by one-half of the atoms of any radioactive material to degenerate.
