A half-life calculator computes radioactive decay, drug elimination, or any exponential decay process. The half-life is the time for a quantity to reduce to half its starting value.

공식

N(t) = N₀ × (½)^(t/t½)
N
N₀ / 2ⁿ — N₀ / 2ⁿ

단계별 가이드

  1. 1N(t) = N₀ × (½)^(t/t½)
  2. 2After n half-lives: N = N₀ / 2ⁿ
  3. 3Decay constant λ = ln(2) / t½ ≈ 0.693 / t½
  4. 4Mean lifetime τ = 1/λ = t½ / ln(2)

풀어진 예시

입력
Drug t½=6h, initial 100mg, after 24h
결과
24/6 = 4 half-lives; N = 100/2⁴ = 6.25 mg remaining

자주 묻는 질문

What is Half-Life?
