Discuss the relationship between the different growth rates and the magnitude of the constant.arrow_forwardSuppose that the initial mass of radioactive substance is m0 and the half-life of the substance is h. Let m(t) be the mass remaining at time t. a What is meant by the half-life h? b Write a formula for m(t) in terms of the half-life h. c Write a formula for the relative decay rate r in terms of the half-life h. d Write a formula for m(t) in terms of the relative decay rate r.arrow_forwardWith what kind of exponential model would half-life be associated? What role does half-life play in these models?arrow_forward
