Chapter 1, Problem 1.102QE

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

A scientific oven is programmed to change temperature from $\text{80}{\text{.0}}^{\text{°}}\text{F}\text{to}\text{215}{\text{.0}}^{\text{°}}\text{F}$ in one minute.  The rate in change of temperature has to be expressed in degree Celsius per second using the convention of significant digits

Concept Introduction:

The conversion factor used to convert degree Fahrenheit into degree Celsius is

  ${\text{T}}_{\text{C}}\text{=}\left({\text{T}}_{\text{F}}\text{-}{\text{32}}^{\text{°}}\text{F}\right)\text{×}\left(\frac{\text{1}{\text{.0}}^{\text{°}}\text{C}}{\text{1}{\text{.8}}^{\text{°}}\text{F}}\right)$
