yes, it does actually because, radiometric dating determines the half life of the uranium in the rock. They can tell how old the uranium is because, all forms of uranium starts with 4.6 billion years of life. Meaning if the half life is 2.3 billion years that means the rock is about 2.3 billion years old
Absolute age is the age of a rock as determined by the measurement of radioactive decay from the time of the rock's formation.
Relative age is the age of a rock relative to the rock layers around it, absolute age is a rock's exact age.
Absolute Age
The age in years of a rock or other object is known as Absolute Age.
In the absolute age, the value will be exact and direct but in the relative age you will compare the rock with other feature.
absolute age
It is best determined by radiometric dating techniques which measure the decay of radioactive elements.

scientists use carbon14 and potassium argon to find absolute age of rock
