Newton's Law of Cooling states that the change of the temperature of an object is proportional to the difference between its own temperature and the ambient temperature over time.

Therefore when expressed mathematically, this is equivalent to:

dT = - k (T – Ts) dt

dT / (T – Ts) = - k dt

Integrating:

ln [(T2– Ts) / (T1– Ts)] = - k (t2 – t1)

Before we plug in the values, let us first convert the temperatures into absolute values R (rankine) by adding 460.

R = ˚F + 460

T1 = 200 + 460 = 660 R

Ts = 70 + 460 = 530 R

ln [(T2– 530) / (660 – 530)] = - 0.6 (2 - 0)

T2 = 569.16 R

T2 = 109 ºF

Answer: After 2 hours, it will be 109 ºF

the mean of a set of numbers is 120. if one number is increased by 300, the mean increases to 135. how many numbers are in the s
stiks02 [169]

There are 20 numbers in the set.

Given,

Set of numbers is 120

one number is increased by 300

and, mean increases to 135.

To find the how many numbers are in the set?

Now, According to the question:

Let the number of numbers be 'n'

Then, (sum of numbers)/n = 120

or, old sum = 120n

if one number is increased by 300, the new sum = (old sum + 300)

Then, (new sum)/ n= 135

or new sum = 135n = old sum + 300 = 120n + 300

The equation will  be:

135n = 120n + 300

15n = 300

n = 20

Hence, There are 20 numbers in the set.

In the question:

The mean of a set of numbers is 120. if one number is increased by 300, the mean increases to 135.
