Various methods of dating are available to date organic remains. Probably the most well known of these is carbon dating.
No. radio carbon dating is only efficient for the fossils of plants or animals. As pottery is an abiotic substance its age cannot be determined by carbon dating
Carbon-14 is used in the dating of artifacts.
Carbon dating is used to measure the age of organic material from long-dead organisms. If you know how old the wood is you know how old the associated artifacts are.
no , b/c the fossils are older than 50,000 years old & contain too little carbon-14 to be measurable
Knowing the half life of carbon-14 the age of an artefact containing an organic material can be evaluated.

Carbon dating. Google it
Stratigraphy is used as a method to determine different levels of occupation by people, over time. By finding an artefact in a particular layer of soil, we can potentially determine the age of the artefact, what it was used for, and who used it.
There are two methods used to determine the age of a rock or fossil. The first is carbon dating and the second is radiometric dating.

Computers can determine the age of an object through a carbon dating, This is also known as fission-track dating and is commonly used by anthropologists and archaeologists.
Carbon 14 is the isotope that is used for carbon dating.
The general term is "radiometric dating. If the isotope is carbon, then it is "carbon dating"
Carbon. The process in which this is done is called Carbon Dating.
No, carbon dating does not use nuclear fusion. Carbon dating is a method used to determine the age of organic materials by measuring the remaining levels of a radioactive isotope called carbon-14. This process involves the decay of carbon-14, not nuclear fusion.
