participant has emphysema.

Question 6: [6 marks]
The half-life of tritium (a radioactive isotope of hydrogen) is about 12.3 years. Suppose we start
with a 10 mg sample mass. An accurate model of it's mass-loss as a function of time is
m (t) = m0 e−rt
a) Given that the denition of a half-life is the time required for a quantity to reduce to half of
its initial value, what is the decay-rate r of tritium?
b) How much mass remains after 20 years?
c) How many years does this model predict it takes for the sample to reach one-tenth its original
mass?
d) How many years does this model predict it takes for the sample to reach zero mass?

Probability
P (E) =
n (E)
n (S)
Conditional probability
P (E ∩ F )
P (F )
P (E|F ) =
Union rule
P (E ∪ F ) = P (E) + P (F ) − P (E ∩ F )
E and F are mutually exclusive if E ∩ F = ∅ (empty set)
P (E ∪ F ) = P (E) + P (F ) if E and F are mutually exclusive
Complement rule
P (E 0 ) = 1 − P (E)
Product rule
P (E ∩ F ) = P (F ) P (E|F ) = P (E) P (F |E)
E and F are independent if P (E|F ) = P (E) or P (F |E) = P (F )
P (E ∩ F ) = P (F ) P (E) if E and F are independent
