the ages of rocks can be determined using the isotope 135cs, which undergoes beta decay with a half-life of 2.3×106 y. a rock sample contains a ratio of 135ba to 135cs of 0.15. given that 135ba is a stable product of the beta decay of 135cs, and assuming there was originally no 135ba present in the rocks, calculate the age of the rock sample.
