    allow them to accurately date objects that are hundreds of years old up to a few million years old. Dating methods are used to find out about how old an artifact may be, or how old it is exactly. Relative dating methods are stratigraphy and style analysis. Absolute dating methods used are absolute dating, radiocarbon dating, uranium-lead dating, and luminescence dating. Stratigraphy as a dating method, is based around the principle that older artifacts are usually found below younger artifacts.…

    Through radiometric dating we’re able to calculate the age of radioactive elements such as Uranium. But that’s not the only way they calculated the age of the Earth. They used carbon dating which uses carbon to calculate the age of plants and animals, including ancient organisms. Once dead these organisms over time decay and some fossilize after millions of years. In the documentary they used many methods to determine the age of the planet, radiometric dating, carbon dating, ancient oceans…

    Carbon Dating

    • 545 Words
    • 3 Pages

    Once a living thing dies, the carbon dating process begins. As long as an organism is alive it will continue to take in 14C or radio carbon; however, when it dies, it will stop. Since 14C is radioactive (decays into 14N), the amount of 14C in a dead organism gets less and less over time. Therefore, part of the dating process involves measuring the amount of 14C that remains after some has decayed. Scientists now use a device called AMS (don't know what it stands for) to figure out the ratio of…

    Radiocarbon dating was invented similarly with the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls. Furthermore, due to the long duration of time elapse, it was hard to date the time when the scrolls were produced. Although the hot and dry climate of the Dead Sea prevented it from rotting severely, it was still difficult to exclude the containments included in the fragments and scrolls. As a result, the process of processing the samples was intricate. At the first part of the process, the scientists tried to…

    Relative dating and radiometric dating are two different things used for the same purpose. This purpose is to determine the age of fossils and other geological features. Radiometric uses radioactivity while relative uses location of the fossil or feature in rock layers. Although radiometric is more accurate than relative, relative dating is easier, quicker, and is the oldest way. These two ways are some of the common ways but not the only ways. There are also methods like carbon dating and…
