A dead body was found within a closed room of a house where the temperature was a constant 66 °F. At the time of discovery, the core temperature of the body wasdetermined to be 88 ° F. One hour later a second measurement showed that the core temperature of the body was 77 ° F. Assume that the time of death corresponds to t = 0 and that the core temperature at that time was 98.6 ° F. Determine how many hours elapsed before the body was found.

A dead body was found within a closed room of a house where the temperature was a constant 66 °F. At the time of discovery, the core temperature of the body wasdetermined to be 88 ° F. One hour later a second measurement showed that the core temperature of the body was 75 ° F. Assume that the time of death corresponds to t = 0 and that the core temperature at that time was 98.6 ° F. Determine how many hours elapsed before the body was found. Type your answer in hours in the space provided below. Round your answer to one decimal place.
A dead body was found within a closed room of a house where the temperature was a constant 24° C. At the time of discovery, the core temperature of the body was determined to be 28° C. One hour later, a second measurement showed that the core temperature of the body was 26° C. The core temperature of the body at the time of death is 37°C. A. Determine how many hours elapsed before the body was found. Answer: hours B. What is the temperature of the body 5 hours from the death of the victim? Answer: °C
To determine the specific heat of an object, a student heats itto 100 °C in boiling water. She then places the 34.5-g object in a151-g aluminum calorimeter containing 114 g of water. The aluminum and water are initially at a temperature of 20.0 °C, and arethermally insulated from their surroundings. If the final temperature is 23.6 °C, what is the specific heat of the object? Referring toTable 16-2, identify the material in the object.
Metals A and B were taken out from a boxed furnaces both at 500 degree Celsius. The ambient temperature, weher the metals were exposed is at 25 degree Celsius. It took 1 minute for Metal A to reach 100 degree Celsius. Determine the temperature of Metal B in degree Celsius, 2 minutes after it was tak out from the furnace to the new ambient temperature. It is known that ka= 2kb.
1. (SI Unit) If the latent heat of boiling water at 1.013 bar is 2257 kJ/kg, the total quantity of heat (kJ) which must be added to 1 kg of water at 30°C in order to boil it is: (20 points) *
Choose correct answer: The temperature before and after the adiabatic process is 200 K and 127°C. The pressure before the process is 500000 N/cm2 and adiabatic index is 2.4, then its pressure after the process is approximately 800000 N/cm2 Select one: True False
1. The boiling temperature of water is 100 °C. If you put boiling water in a mugplaced at the table top, you observed that after some time the water cools down,decreasing the temperature of water in the mug. Why is this so? Explain using theZeroth Law of Thermodynamics. What happens to objects when temperature increases? For instance, a jar cover an be removed by putting the cover in hot water. Why is this so?
A metal is heated up to a temperature of 500 degrees Celsius. It is then exposed to a temperature of 38 degrees Celsius. After 150 seconds, the temperature of the metal becomes 205 degrees Celsius When will the temperature be 100 degrees Celsius? Express your answer in seconds and minutes.
