Newton's law of cooling states that the temperature of an object changes at a rate proportional to the difference between its te

mperature and that of its surroundings. Suppose that the temperature of a cup of coffee obeys Newton's law of cooling. If the coffee has a temperature of 205 degrees Fahrenheit when freshly poured, and 2.5 minutes later has cooled to 195 degrees in a room at 70 degrees, determine when the coffee reaches a temperature of 160 degrees.

Answer:

Tt = 70 + 135e^-0.031t

13 minutes

Explanation:

Given that :

Initial temperature, Ti = 205°

Temperature after 2.5 minutes = 195°

Temperature of room, Ts= 70

Using the relation :

Tt = Ts + Ce^-kt

Temperature after time, t

When freshly poured, t = 0

205 = 70 + Ce^-0k

205 = 70 + C

C = 205 - 70 = 135°

T after 2.5 minutes to find proportionality constant, k

Tt = Ts + Ce^-kt

195 = 70 + 135e^-2.5k

125 = 135e^-2.5k

125 / 135 = e^-2.5k

0.9259 = e^-2.5k

Take In of both sides :

−0.076989 = - 2.5k

k = −0.076989 / - 2.5

k = 0.031

Equation becomes :

Tt = 70 + 135e^-0.031t

t when Tt = 160

160 = 70 + 135e^-0.031k

90 = 135e^-0.031t

90/135 = e^-0.031t

0.6667 = e^-0.031t

In(0.6667) = - 0.031t

−0.405465 = - 0.031t

t = 0.405465/ 0.031

t = 13.071

t = 13 minutes

1. explain why mid-sized cars and SUVs have different rollover fatality rates.
iris [78.8K]

Answer:

1.  They generally have poorer fuel efficiency and require more resources to manufacture than smaller vehicles, thus contributing more to climate change and environmental degradation. Their higher center of gravity increases their risk of rollovers.

2. Mid-sized cars and SUVs both have a fixed object fatality rate of 2.6/BVM. This is most likely because they have a similar mass and inertia. The force of the crash is likely to have about the same deceleration in both vehicles.

PLEASE ANSWER QUICK!! What happens at the condensation point?A. Molecules of a liquid heat up and begin to convert to a gaseous
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

D. Molecules of a gas slow down and change to a liquid state.

Explanation:

  • Condensation refers to a process by which a gas changes from gaseous state to liquid state. For example, water vapor changes to from the state of being a gas to liquid state water.
  • Condensation is the opposite of evaporation and occurs when gaseous particles slow down and change into liquid state.
  • Heat energy is lost during condensation and gaseous molecules lose kinetic energy making them to slow down and thus changing to liquid state,

navik [9.2K]

D. a and c

Explanation:

To make a generator out of a bicycle, Devon will need two magnets and coil of wire.

There is a close knit relationship between magnetism and electricity. Electricity can be generated by a wire changing flux in the presence of a magnetic field.

  • The magnets provide magnetic field for the process.
  • The coil of wire is placed in between the magnetic field generated by the magnets.
  • The bicycle pedal is connected to the set up to turn the wire in between the magnetic fields.
  • This way, electricity is produced.
