Answer:

  (a)  13.85 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature difference is a decaying exponential function of time. Here, it decreases from an initial difference of 15 °C to 10 °C after 25 minutes. So, that temperature difference can be modeled as ...

  ΔT = 15(10/15)^(t/25)

We want to find the value of this at t=55. It is ...

  ΔT = 15(2/3)^(55/25) ≈ 6.15

This is the amount the temperature of the drink is below room temperature.

  drink temperature = (20 - 6.15) °C = 13.85 °C

The temperature of the drink after 55 minutes is about 13.85 °C.

Ann [662]

Answer:

700.39cm

Step-by-step explanation:

For a horizontal distance of 30cm, the drop is 1cm, now we need to get the drop for horizontal distance of 700 cm to maintain the same slope

Using the concept of cross multiplication

30cm=1 cm drop

700 cm=x

30x=700

X=700/30=70/3=23 ⅓

Utilizing pythagoras theorem, the length of pipe will be

L=√(23⅓)²+700²

L=700.38878092417 cm

Rounded off, the length is approximately 700.39 cm
