    Newton's Law of Cooling states that the rate of change of a body's temperature is proportional to the difference between the body's temperature and the surrounding temperature. The document provides the differential equation that models this and examples of applying the equation to problems involving bodies cooling over time to different temperatures. It asks the reader to determine temperature functions and values at given times based on initial temperatures and rates of change according to the surrounding conditions.

    Newtons Law of Cooling

    Newtons Law of Cooling states that the rate of change of the temperature of the body is
    proportional to the temperature difference between the body and its surrounding medium.


    ( )


    = ( )


    where
    = time rate of change of the temperature of the body

    T = variable temperature of the body


    Ts = constant temperature of the surrounding medium
    k = constant of proportionality
    t = time

    Examples:

    1. A body with a temperature of 95C is immersed in a liquid that is kept at a constant


    temperature of 20C. After 5 minutes, the temperature of the body decreased to 60C.
    a. Express the temperature of the body at any time t.
    b. What will be the temperature of the body after 7 minutes?
    c. Find the time it will take for the temperature of the body to decrease to 35C.

    2. A thermometer reading 18F is brought into a room where the temperature is 70F, 1 min
    later, the thermometer reading is 31F.
    a. Determine the temperature reading as a function of time.
    b. Find the temperature reading 5 mins after the temperature is first brought into the
    room.

    3. At 9 A.M., a thermometer reading 70F is taken outdoors where the temperature is 15F
    at 9:05 A.M., the thermometer reading is 45F. At 9:10 A.M., the thermometer is taken
    back indoors where the temperature is fixed at 70F.
    a. Find the reading at 9:20 AM
    b. When will the reading, to the nearest degree, return back to its indoor temperature
    (70F)?
