gollark: As far as I'm aware the basic principle is just that a force is exerted on current-carrying wires in magnetic fields because the fields interact or something.
gollark: For the first one, the half life is 30 years and the time is 90 years. So it's 3 half lives (90/30) so its mass halves 3 times, so the mass at the end is 1\*(1/2)\*(1/2)\*(1/2)=1\*(1/2)³=0.125.
gollark: It's how long it takes for half of the atoms in a thing of radioactive isotope to decay.
