Scientist can determine the age of ancient objects by a method called radiocarbon dating. the bombardment of the upper atmosphere by cosmic rays converts nitrogen to a radioactive isotope of carbon, 14c, with a half-life of about 5730 years. vegetation absorbs carbon dioxide through the atmosphere and animal life assimilates 14c through food chains. when a plant or animal dies, it stops replacing its carbon and the amount of 14c begins to decrease through radioactive decay. therefore, the level of radioactivity must also decay exponentially. a parchment fragment was discovered that had about 75% as much 14c radioactivity as does plant material on earth today. estimate the age of the parchment. (round your answer to the nearest hundred years.)
