A human body excretes (removes by waste discharge, sweating, etc.) certain materials by a law similar to radioactivity. If technitium is injected in some form in a human body, the body excretes half the amount in 24 hours. A patient is given an injection containing 99 Tc. This isotope is radioactive with a half-life of 6 hours. The activity from the body just after the injection is 6μCi. How much time will elapse before the activity falls to 3μCi?
