The radioactivity due to carbon-14 measured in a piece of a wooden casket from an ancient burial site is found to produce 20 counts per minute from a given sample,
whereas the same amount of carbon from a piece of living wood produces 160 counts per minute. The half-life of carbon-14, a beta-minus emitter, is 5730 years.
