The liquid base of an ice cream has an initial temperature of 86°C before it is placed in a freezer with a constant temperature

Karolina [17]

The temperature of the ice cream 2 hours after it was placed in the freezer is 37.40 °C

From Newton's law of cooling, we have that

$T_{(t)}= T_{s}+(T_{0} - T_{s})e^{kt}$

Where

$(t) = \ time$

$T_{(t)} = \ the \ temperature \ of \ the \ body \ at \ time \ (t)$

$T_{s} = Surrounding \ temperature$

$T_{0} = Initial \ temperature \ of \ the \ body$

$k = constant$

From the question,

$T_{0} = 86 ^{o}C$

$T_{s} = -20 ^{o}C$

∴ $T_{0} - T_{s} = 86^{o}C - -20^{o}C = 86^{o}C +20^{o}C$

$T_{0} - T_{s} = 106^{o} C$

Therefore, the equation $T_{(t)}= T_{s}+(T_{0} - T_{s})e^{kt}$ becomes

$T_{(t)}=-20+106 e^{kt}$

Also, from the question

After 1 hour, the temperature of the ice-cream base has decreased to 58°C.

That is,

At time $t = 1 \ hour$ , $T_{(t)} = 58^{o}C$

Then, we can write that

$T_{(1)}=58 = -20+106 e^{k(1)}$

Then, we get

$58 = -20+106 e^{k(1)}$

Now, solve for $k$

First collect like terms

$58 +20 = 106 e^{k}$

$78 =106 e^{k}$

Then,

$e^{k} = \frac{78}{106}$

$e^{k} = 0.735849$

Now, take the natural log of both sides

$ln(e^{k}) =ln( 0.735849)$

$k = -0.30673$

This is the value of the constant $k$

Now, for the temperature of the ice cream 2 hours after it was placed in the freezer, that is, at $t = 2 \ hours$

From

$T_{(t)}=-20+106 e^{kt}$

Then

$T_{(2)}=-20+106 e^{(-0.30673 \times 2)}$

$T_{(2)}=-20+106 e^{-0.61346}$

$T_{(2)}=-20+106\times 0.5414741237$

$T_{(2)}=-20+57.396257$

$T_{(2)}=37.396257 \ ^{o}C$

$T_{(2)} \approxeq 37.40 \ ^{o}C$

Hence, the temperature of the ice cream 2 hours after it was placed in the freezer is 37.40 °C

Question 2 (1 point)

nikdorinn [45]

Answer: 24 hours - no; because depending on where you are on Earth, you have a different amount of sunlight.

Step-by-step explanation:

The day-night cycle is a complete day or a complete rotation of the earth around its axis. This takes 24 hours which is why 24 hours is the length of a full day.

People around the world however, do not get the same amount of sunlight or darkness and this is because of where they are on Earth. Due to the way the planet is tilted on its axis, some areas see sunlight more than other in a period and others see more darkness.
