hydrogen 2nd isotop is used
It should have a half life that is close to the age of the object being dated
Uranium dating is not better but is used for long times in geology; carbon 14 is used for short times in archaeology.
The radioisotope commonly used for radiocarbon dating is carbon-14.
It is the only naturally occurring radioisotope of carbon.
No, nitrogen-14 is not commonly used for radiometric dating. Carbon-14 is the radioisotope commonly used for dating archaeological artifacts by measuring its decay rate in organic materials.
the half life forms a type of clock used to calculate time passed
Carbon-14 is a radioisotope commonly used in dating archaeological artifacts. It decays at a known rate, allowing scientists to determine the age of organic materials such as bone, wood, and charcoal.
Carbon 14 is the isotope that is used for carbon dating.
The general term is "radiometric dating. If the isotope is carbon, then it is "carbon dating"
A radioisotope can be used as a tracer in the human body because tracers are used in the imaging the body's organs and tissues.
Yes, dating on WikiAnswers is wrong. WikiAnswers is not an online chatting or dating service, and should not be used as such. WikiAnswers is a question and answer site, and should only be used as that and not a dating service.
