Jim is cooking sopas (chicken noodle soup) for Noche Buena. He finished early in the afternoon and wants to preserve it but the sopas is still too hot if it will be put directly on the refrigerator. The sopas has just boiled a hundred degree Celsius and the refrigerator wasn't powerful enough for the big container of the soup if it was warmer than 20 degrees Celsius. Jose found out that cooling it in a sink full of cold water, while the faucet is running with the water resulting to roughly constant temperature of 7 degrees Celsius, could bring the temperature of the sopas to 61 degrees Celsius in 14 minutes. Determine the value of the proportionality constant. Note: SOLVE CONTINUOUSLY. Round off final answer to four decimal places. If your answer is -0.89668 then input -0.8967 as your answer.

Jim is cooking sopas (chicken noodle soup) for Noche
Buena. He finished early in the afternoon and wants
to preserve it but the sopas is still too hot if it will be
put directly on the refrigerator. The sopas has just
boiled a hundred degree Celsius and the refrigerator
wasn't powerful enough for the big container of the
soup if it was warmer than 20 degrees Celsius. Jose
found out that cooling it in a sink full of cold water,
while the faucet is running with the water resulting
to roughly constant temperature of 7 degrees Celsius,
could bring the temperature of the sopas to 61
degrees Celsius in 14 minutes. Determine the value
of the proportionality constant.
Note: SOLVE CONTINUOUSLY. Round off final answer
to four decimal places. If your answer is -0.89668 then
input -0.8967 as your answer.
