This was a pretty interesting project you did here! thought it was clever of you to use dice to visually show the process of radioactive decay. Nice job :)
It’s a kind of game, where the probabilities to get a six decreases as well the number of dices is decreasing and gives us a good idea about the decay of radiation, because as the number of active atoms decreases, the probability to be hit by radiation decreases too. Good image.
yep, it is. That is why they measure the amount of time a radioactive substance takes to decay using their "half life", which is how long it takes for half of them to decay.

thanks very much!
buddha108 made something like this...
Thanks and Happy New Year! If you like see a remix of your project (... interference).

I did not know that the radioactive decay is a random process. Wonderful project.

Thanks very much, goch.
WOOT!
