Betong devises a customized temperature scale that assigns a temperature reading of 49 to the normal melting point of gold (1063°C) and a temperature reading of 181 to its boiling point (2808°C). The Betong thermometer shows the temperature inside W312 is -26 degrees Betong. What would this temperature be on the Celsius scale? Round off answer to the nearest whole number. ANSWER: °C
On a hot Saturday morning while people are working inside, the air conditioner keeps the temperature inside the building at 24°C. At noon the air conditioner is turned off, and the people go home. The temperature outside is a constant 34°C for the rest of the afternoon. If the time constant for the building is 5 hr, what will be the temperature inside the building at 3:00 P.M.? At 5:00 P.M.? When will the temperature inside the building reach 26°C? RIB °C. At 3:00 P.M., the temperature inside the building will be about (Round to the nearest tenth as needed.)
Question 26 Suppose the sun was twice its current temperature. Recall, the sun is 7 x 105 km in radius, with a surface temperature of 5800 K., and our distance from the sun is D = 150 million km. Using the equation to model the temperature of the earth, (sun)1/4 Tsun and remembering you have to work in the absolute temperature 4D² scale (OK = -273°C), what would happen to the temperature of the earth (in Kelvin scale)? It would be a quarter times as hot. It would twice as hot. It would be four times as hot. It would be half as hot.
Bob heats up a bottle of milk for his baby, Jill, every morning. Jill will only drink the bottle if it is at 98 degrees. So Bob places the bottle in a cup of hot water (170 degrees). The bottle starts off at 35 degrees. After 2 minutes the bottle is 80 degrees. Use Newton's heating-cooling law, that the rate of change in the temperature, H, is proportional to the difference between the object and the surrounding temperature, to determine how long Bob should leave the bottle in the hot water. Assume that the water stays at 170 degrees.
