    LECTURE 11 - Physical Application - Exponential Decay

    Uploaded by

    Chilton John Duat
    Exponential decay describes how certain quantities decrease over time, such as radioactive substances or the voltage in a capacitor. The rate of decay is proportional to the amount that remains, following the equation: dN/dt = -kN, where N is the amount remaining and k is a positive constant. Solving this differential equation shows that the quantity decreases exponentially over time according to the equation: N = N0e-kt, where N0 is the initial amount.
