Carbon-14 has a half-life of 5730 y. A sample of wood has been recovered by an archaeologist. The sample is sent to a laboratory,
where it is determined that the activity of the sample is 0.144 Bq/g. By comparing this activity with the activity of living organic matter, 0.230 Bq/g, the scientist determines how old the wood sample is, or more precisely, when the tree that the sample came from died. How old is the sample of wood? A) 2940 y B) 3870 y C) 2630 y D) 4250 y E) 4590 y
