Fossils up to 75,000 years old can be dated with Carbon-14.
Radio isotopes can be used for the age determination of the fossils. Carbon-14 is a common isotope which is used for that purpose. But the half- life of the Carbon-14 is relatively small as 5730 years. That means the amount of Carbon-14 will be half after every 5730 years. Hence, decay is very fast. So Carbon-14 cannot be used forage determination which is more than 75000 years due to the low accuracy.

Explanation:
The Ritcher scale is a logarithmic scale and it suggests that the number increases by a factor of 10.
One point on the scale differs from another by an order of 10.
- The Ritcher scale is used to measure the magnitude of earthquakes in a particular area.
- It is graduated form 1 to 10
- The magnitude of the quake increases as one moves from 1 through 10.
- This is because the magnitude of the quake actually increases by an order of 10.
