Question 38

Easy

The activity of a medical radioisotope sample is measured as $MBq1200\text{ MBq}$ .

This initial measurement is plotted as a point at $(0, 1200)$ on the graph grid in Figure 1.

The half-life of this isotope is 6 hours.

Use this information to plot three more points on the grid in Figure 1 to show how the activity of the isotope changes over a period of 18 hours. Figure 1: Graph grid showing Activity against Time
