A repairman have fixed the heater of an old building from 8 am to 11 am. The room's temperature after 210 minutes following the repair, was 10 degrees Celsius. Assuming that the surrounding temperature stayed at -50 degrees Celsius, at what time of the day will the temperature of the building go back to 20 degrees Celsius?

Convert the following to equivalent temperatures on the Celsius and Kelvin scales: (a) the normal human body temperature, 98.6F; (b) the air temperature on a cold day, 5.00F.
At 25.0 m below the surface of the sea, where the temperature is 5.00C, a diver exhales an air bubble having a volume of 1.00 cm3. If the surface temperature of the sea is 20.0C, what is the volume of the bubble just before it breaks the surface?
A particular pair of human lungs have a volume of 1.8 L when inflated. At this volume, the temperature inside the lungs is 98.7°F. If the temperature of the air outside the lung is 43.2°F, what volume of cooler outside air is being inhaled and warmed? Round your answer to 2 decimal places.
The temperature C of a fresh cup of coffee t minutes after it is poured is given by C = 125e−0.03t + 67 degrees Fahrenheit. (a) Make a graph of C versus t. I answered ( a) correctly (b) The coffee is cool enough to drink when its temperature is 145 degrees. When will the coffee be cool enough to drink? (Round your answer to two decimal places.) min(c) What is the temperature of the coffee in the pot? (Note: We are assuming that the coffee pot is being kept hot and is the same temperature as the cup of coffee when it was poured. Round your answer to the nearest degree.) °F(d) What is the temperature in the room where you are drinking the coffee? (Hint: If the coffee is left to cool a long time, it will reach room temperature. Round your answer to the nearest degree.) °F
A patient has an illness that typically lasts about 24 hours. The temperature, T, in degrees Fahrenheit, of the patient t hours after the illness begins is given by: T(t) = -0.012t² +0.3t +98.7. Use your calculator to graph the function and answer the following questions. Round all answers to 1 decimal place. When does the patient's temperature reach it maximum value? Answer: After hours What is the patient's maximum temperature during the illness? Answer:

Note: Draw the figure of a thermometer reflecting the given temperatures. Write the formula and solve for the required quantity. Encircle or box the final answer/s.
At 10:30 AM, detectives discover a dead body in a room and measure its temperature at 27°C. One hour later, the body's temperature had dropped to 24.8°C. Determine how many hours had passed since the death occured (when the body temperature was a normal 37°C), by the time the body was discovered, assuming that the temperature in the room was held constant at 14°C. (Use decimal notation. Give your answer to one decimal place. Round any intermediate calculations, if needed, to no less than three decimal places.) the number of hours:
Consider a graph of temperature in degrees Celsius, C, versus temperature in degrees Fahrenheit, P, and assume that this graph is a straight line. It is known that 100°C and 212° F correspond to the temperature at which water boils. Similarly, 0°C and 32°F correspond to the freezing point of water.a) What temperature in degrees Fahrenheit does 20°C correspond to?b) What temperature in degrees Celsius does 100° F correspond to?c) What temperature has the same value in degrees Fahrenheit and in Centigrade?
Please write the step-by-step solution following the formula: dHI/dt = dHI/dT x dT/dt +dHI/dhr x dhr/dt
A person taking a reading of the temperature in a freezer in Celsius makes two mistakes: first omitting the negative sign and then thinking the temperature is Fahrenheit. That is, the person reads – x °C as x °F . Oddly enough, the result is the correct Fahrenheit temperature. What is the original Celsius reading? Round your answer to three significant figures.
Use Newton’s Law of Cooling, T = C + (T0 - C)ekt, to solve, At 9:00 a.m., a coroner arrived at the home of a person who had died. The temperature of the room was 70°F, and at the time of death the person had a body temperature of 98.6°F. The coroner took the body’s temperature at 9:30 a.m.,at which time it was 85.6°F, and again at 10:00 a.m., when it was 82.7°F. At what time did the person die?
. The hottest temperature on a planet was 864°F recorded on Venus by the Soviet Venera probe and the U.S. Pioneer probe. The coldest place in the solar system is Pluto where the temperature is estimated at 1360.0°F. Calculate each of these temperatures in degrees Celsius.
