At crime scenes, the time of death is often determined by the temperature of the liver. Let H(t) be the temperature of the body, and S be the surrounding temperature. Newton's heating-cooling law states that the rate of change in the temperature, H, is proportional to the difference between the object and the surrounding temperature. If it is 75 degrees outside and a living person is 98.6 degrees, use Newton's cooling law to determine how long a body that has temperature 76 degrees has been left outside if at time t = 12 hours, H(12) = 80. Note that we need two measurements as different masses will cool at different rates. O 23.42 O 24.35 O 25.694 O 31.385

Many hot-water heating systems have a reservoir tank connected directly to the pipeline, so as to allow for expansion when the water becomes hot. The heating system of a house has 71.8 m of copper pipe whose inside radius is 9.83 x 10- 3 m. When the water and pipe are heated from 25.2 to 76.6 °C, what must be the minimum volume of the reservoir tank to hold the overflow of water? Numbers: Unit/s:
