The question is incomplete, the complete question is;

A body initially at a all 100 degree centigarde cools to 60 degree centigarde in 5 minutes and to 40 degree centigarde in 10 minutes . What is the temperature of surrounding? What will be the temperature in 15 minutes?

Answer:

See explanation

Explanation:

From Newton's law of cooling;

θ1 - θ2/t = K(θ1 + θ2/2 - θo]

Where;

θ1 and θ2 are initial and final temperatures

θo is the temperature of the surroundings

K is the constant

t is the time taken

Hence;

100 - 60/5 = K(100 + 60/2 - θo)

100 - 40/10 = K(100 + 40/2 - θo)

8= (80 - θo)K -----(1)

6= (70 - θo)K -----(2)

Diving (1) by (2)

8/6 = (80 - θo)/(70 - θo)

8(70 - θo) = 6(80 - θo)

560 - 8θo = 480 - θo

560 - 480 = -θo + 8θo

80 = 7θo

θo = 11.4°

Again from Newton's law of cooling;

θ = θo + Ce^-kt

Where;

t= 0, θ = 60° and θo = 11.4°

60 = 11.4 + C e^-K(0)

60 - 11.4 = C

C= 48.6°

To obtain K

40 = 11.4 + 48.6e^-10k

40 -11.4 = 48.6e^-10k

28.6/48.6 = e^-10k

0.5585 = e^-10k

-10k = ln0.5585

k= ln0.5585/-10

K= 0.0583

Hence, the temperature in 15 minutes;

θ= 11.4 + 48.6e^(-0.0583 × 15)

θ= 31.7°

natulia [17]

1) The longitudinal waves move in parallel direction to the source of vibration. The transverse waves move in perpendicular direction to the source of vibration . They are similar in the sense that energy is transferred in the form of waves.

2) Reflection occurs when waves bounce from a surface back toward the source. Refraction is when waves are deflected when the waves go through a substance.

3) The Law of Conservation of Energy

states that energy can neither be created

nor destroyed, it can only be transferred or

changed from one form to another.

the mass of one water drop is 0.0008kg and the gravitational field strength is 10N/kg what is its weight
djyliett [7]
Weight = (mass) x (gravity)

Weight = (8 x 10⁻⁴ kg) x (10 N/kg) = 0.008 Newton

m=357g\\\\\rho=1.0\ \dfrac{g}{cm^3}\\\\\rho=\dfrac{m}{V}\to V=\dfrac{m}{\rho}\\\\\text{substitute}\\\\V=\dfrac{357g}{1.0\frac{g}{cm^3}}=375g\cdot1.0\dfrac{cm^3}{g}=375\ cm^3
