The half-life on an isotope is the amount of time required for 50 % of a sample of the isotope to under-go radioactive decay. The half-life of the carbon-14 isotope is 5,730 years. How many years must pass until a sample that starts out with 16,000 carbon-14 isotopes decays into a sample with only 500 carbon-14 isotopes?
ক. 1,146 years
খ. 5,730 years
গ. 28,650 years
ঘ. 183,360 years
উত্তর: 28,650 years
ব্যাখ্যা: 16000 থেকে 8000 এ আসতে 5730 বছর লাগবে। এভাবে 8000 থেকে 4000, 4000 থেকে 2000, 2000 থেকে 1000 এবং 1000 থেকে 500 তে আসবে। = 5730 +5730 +5730+ 5730 + 5730 = 28650
