We know from Newton's Law of Cooling that the rate at which an object warms up is proportional to the difference between the ambient temperature of the room and the temperature of the object. The differential equation corresponding to this situation is given by y' = k(M – y) where k is a positive constant. The solution to this equation is given by y = M + (yo – M)e-kt , where yo is the initial temperature of the object. Suppose your Thanksgiving turkey is kept at a temperature of 40 degrees Fahrenheit until it is put into a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven. It takes 2 hours for the turkey to warm up to a safe eating temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Find the values of yo, M, and k, for this situation, rounding your answers to 3 decimal places. Yo= M = k= Regardless of your answers above, suppose the k value in this situation is k = 0.3. Find the initial rate of increase of the turkey's temperature as soon as it is placed in the oven. Round to 3 decimal places. degrees per hour.
Temperatures in Biomedicine. (a) Normal body temperature. The average normal body temperature measured in the mouth is 310 K. What would Celsius and Fahrenheit thermometers read for this temperature? (b) Elevated body temperature. During very vigorous exercise, the body’s temperature can go as high as 40OC. What would Kelvin and Fahrenheit thermometers read for this temperature? (c) Temperature difference in the body. The surface temperature of the body is normally about 7CO lower than the internal temperature. Express this temperature difference in kelvins and in Fahrenheit degrees. (d) Blood storage. Blood stored at 4.0OC lasts safely for about 3 weeks, whereas blood stored at -160OC lasts for 5 years. Express both temperatures on the Fahrenheit and Kelvin scales. (e) Heat stroke. If the body’s temperature is above 105OF for a prolonged period, heat stroke can result. Express this temperature on the Celsius and Kelvin scales.
