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

A ball is thrown upwards at an unknown speed. in a time of
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

a)  Initial speed of the ball = 14.45 m/s

b) At height 6 m speed of ball = 9.55 m/s

c) Maximum height reached = 10.65 m

Explanation:

a)  We have equation of motion s=ut+\frac{1}{2} at^2, where s is the displacement, u is the initial velocity, t is the time taken and a is the acceleration.

s = 6 m, t = 0.5 seconds, a = acceleration due to gravity value = -9.8m/s^2

 Substituting

    6=u*0.5-\frac{1}{2} *9.8*0.5^2\\ \\ u=14.45m/s

 Initial speed of the ball = 14.45 m/s

 b) We have equation of motion v^2=u^2+2as, where v is the final velocity

   s = 6 m, u = 14.45 m/s, a = -9.8m/s^2

    Substituting

        v^2=14.45^2-2*9.8*6\\ \\ v=9.55m/s

  So at height 6 m speed of ball = 9.55 m/s

c) We have equation of motion v^2=u^2+2as, where v is the final velocity

   u = 14.45 m/s, v =0 , a = -9.8m/s^2

   Substituting

     0^2=14.45^2-2*9.8*s\\ \\ s=10.65 m

  Maximum height reached = 10.65 m
