One issue confronting the use of ¹⁴C decay to date materials is that of obtaining a standard. One approach to this issue is found in the field of dendrochronology, or using tree rings to determine age. Using this approach, tree materials dating back 10,000 years have been identified. Assuming you had a sample of such a tree in which the number of decay events was 15.3 decays per minute before decomposition, what would the decays per minute be in the present day?
