OpenStudy (rissaunnie):

can someone show me how to use a half life calculater

OpenStudy (danjs):

amount left at some time = start amount* e^(-k * time) that is exponential decay for the half life, you want to know when the amount left is 1/2 of the start amount

OpenStudy (danjs):

so then you can put that in and cancel out the start amount 1/2 = e^(-k*t) t=t1/2 half life time

OpenStudy (danjs):

that is pretty much it, depends on the situtation to determine the k constant
