Which of the following terms best describes a condition inwhich a quantity decreases at a rate that is proportional to thecurrent value of the quantity?

Solution
- A quantity is subject to exponential decay if it decreases at a rate proportional to its current value.
- The formula for exponential decay is:
[tex]\frac{dN}{dt}=-\lambda N[/tex]Final Answer
The answer is EXPONENTIAL DECAY (OPTION C)
