Question
(Law of cooling) A thermometer, reading 10C, is brought into a room whose temperature is 23C, Two minutes later the thermometer reading is 18C, How long will it take until the reading is practically 23C, say, 22.8C? First guess.
Solution
The first step in solving 1 problem number 29 trying to solve the problem we have to refer to the textbook question: (Law of cooling) A thermometer, reading 10C, is brought into a room whose temperature is 23C, Two minutes later the thermometer reading is 18C, How long will it take until the reading is practically 23C, say, 22.8C? First guess.
From the textbook chapter First-Order ODEs you will find a few key concepts needed to solve this.
