Chapter 1, Problem 35P
An iron-constantan thermocouple is calibrated by inserting its junction in boiling water (100°C) and measuring a voltage
(a) Find the equation of the line for the measured temperature T as a function of the voltage V and determine the value of the sensitivity a and the reference temperature
(h) Sketch the graph of T as a function of V and clearly indicate both the reference temperature
(c) If the thermocouple is mounted in a chemical reactor and the voltage is observed to go from 10.0 mV to 13.6 mV, what is the change in temperature of the reactor?

When drugs are administered into the bloodstream, the amount of the drug present
decreases continuously at a constant rate. The amount of a certain drug, Xanaz, in the
bloodstream is modeled by the function, where is the initial dosage, and t is the time (in
hours) after the initial dose was given.
The following chart shows the relationship between the original dose and how much is sti
in the system after so much time.
