A patient’s temperature was 97.0 °F at 8:05 A.M. and 103.4 °F at 12:05 P.M. If the temperature change with respect to elapsed time was linear throughout the day, what would the patient’s temperature be at 3:35 P.M.? answer in Farehnheit
Two shuffleboard disks of equal mass, one orange and the other green, are involved in a perfectly elastic glancing collision. The green disk is initially at rest and is struck by the orange disk moving initially to the right at vOi = 5.80 m/s as in Figure a, shown below. After the collision, the orange disk moves in a direction that makes an angle of ? = 34.0° with the horizontal axis while the green disk makes an angle of ? = 56.0° with this axis as in Figure b. Determine the speed of each disk after the collision.

The outside temperature can be estimated based on how fast crickets chirp. At 104 chirps per minute, the temperature is 6363 °F. At 176 chirps per minute, the temperature is 8181 °F. Using this information, you can make a formula that relates chirp rate to temperature. Assume the relationship is linear, that is the points form a straight line when plotted on a graph. What is the temperature if you hear 156156 chirps per minute?
