At crime scenes, the time of death is often determined by the temperature of the liver. Let (t) be the temperature the body, and be the surrounding temperature. Newton's heating-cooling law states that the rate of change in the temperature, H, is proportional to the difference between the object and the surrounding temperature. If it is 75 degrees outside and a living person is 98.6 degrees, use Newton's cooling law to determine how long a body that has temperature 76 degrees has been left outside if at time t = 12 hours, H(12) = 80. Note that we need two measurements as different masses will cool at different rates. O 23.42 O 24.35 O 25.694 O 31.385

The quantity of energy Q transferred by heat conduction through an insulating pad in time interval Δt is described by Q/Δt = κAΔT/d, where κ is the thermal conductivity of the material, A is the face area of the pad (perpendicular to the direction of heat flow), ΔT is the difference in temperature across the pad, and d is the thickness of the pad. In one trial to test material as lining for sleeping bags, 86.0 J of heat is transferred through a 3.40-cm-thick pad when the temperature on one side is 37.0°C and on the other side is 2.00°C. In a trial of the same duration with the same temperatures, how much heat will be transferred when more of the material is added to form a pad with the same face area and total thickness 8.41 cm?

During the first quarter of the year, a specific location in Aurora had an average air temperature of 35°C and a pressure of 0.998 atm. What is the direct distance between this place and La Trinidad if the city is elevated at a 45° angle to this location? The pressure in La Trinidad is assumed to be 0.834 atm. Every 1000 feet of vertical elevation, the temperature of the atmosphere drops by about 1.2 degrees Celsius. What is the average temperature in La Trinidad this time of year (in degrees Celsius)? Assume that the air is still and behaves like an ideal gas.
