The half life of each radio-isotope is different, so there is no single answer.

What if your cat is radioactive with the same halflife as carbon 14. how many years will it take for three fourths of your cat to degrade?
my grandma
Is any isotope of lead is radioactive?
many. one example is lead-214 with a halflife of 26.8 minutes.
What is the halflife of an M16?
Of course, "halflife" is not the correct term to use in this context, so I am supposing that you are asking how long as in "how many years of use" or "how many rounds fired" can you expect an M16 to function. This is also called "service life". The answer depends entirely on how the machine is treated. If it is properly cleaned and has minor parts replaced as they wear and break, the rifle will last for many years and/or many tens of thousands of rounds. You can research the endurance testing that the US Army has employed to determine the tolerance to hard use. "Halflife" refers to radioactive material and is the amount of time required for half of the material to decay.
When was Illadelph Halflife created?
Illadelph Halflife was created on 1996-09-24.
Will Valve be releasing a HalfLife 4?
Yes.
Can you use halflife to determine when dinosaurs died?
yes
Can you use carbon dating to find out how old something is around 40 years old or newer?
Carbon dating measures the amount of carbon halflives that an object's carbon-14 has seen. A halflife is the amount of time it takes for half of the C-14 present to decay into a different element (N-14). A carbon halflife is 5730 years so you wouldn't be able to tell with such a small amount of time.
An artifact is found that some are claiming is 30000 years old 3.1 percent of the original carbon14 is present The halflife of carbon14 is 5730 year?
Yes, but the dating is only off a little (500 years or so).
What is the correct order of nuclear decay mode for the changes from U-238 to U-234?
U-238 --> alpha + gamma + Th-234, halflife 4.51E9 yearsTh-234 --> beta- + gamma + Pa-234, halflife 24.10 daysPa-234 --> beta- + gamma + U-234, halflife 6.66 hours
What is halflife about?
Half-life is the time it takes for one half of the radioactive material to decay. It is logarithmic, so after two half-lives, one quarter remains - then one eighth - etc.
Is lithium 8 an isotope why?
Yes, but it has a halflife of only 0.86 seconds.
Is lambda the halflife logo?
The logo has a border, however the lambda is in the center.
