Question 1024371: the amount of radioactive c^14 present in an object is given by Q(t)=Q0t^-0.000121t, where t is measured in years. (a) if 10 gram of C^14 are present at time t=0, how many grams will be present in the object 1000 years from now. round the answer to two decimal places.(b) what percentage of an initial amount of C^14 is left after 10,000 years? round the answer to the nearest percent? round the answer to the nearest hundreds of years.
