Newton's law of cooling gives the temperature T(t) of an object at time t as where and Consider the following scenario: Use Matlab to do the following: Determine the value of k. Determine the time of death, assuming that victim's body temperature was normal ( 98.6° F) prior to death, and that the room temperature was constant at 69° F. Calculate the temperature of the body for every minute between 9:18 PM and 10:18 PM Plot the temperature of the body for every minute between 9:18 PM and 10:18 PM. Include a plot title and axis labels.

The code as well as the outputs are presented in the parts respectively.

Explanation:

As the question is not complete, the complete question is as attached in the figure.

The matlab code is as given below

Part a:

The Newton's Law is given as

Rearranging this equation gives

or

For this case the values are given as below:

T(10:18pm)= 78 F

T(9:18pm)= 79.5 F

T_s=69 F

t=1 hour

So the value of k is calculated as per following

Code:

%% For estimating the value of k

T_t=78;T_o=79.5;T_s=69;t=1; %initializing the variables

k=-(log((T_t-T_s)/(T_o-T_s)))/t;% Calculating the value of t in hr^-1

disp(['The value of k is ',num2str(k),' 1/hr'])

Output:

The value of k is 0.15415 1/hr

Part b:

For calculation of time of death following data is used

T(9:18pm)= 79.5 F

T(0)=98.6 F

T_s=69 F

k=0.15415 1/hr

Code:

%% For estimating the time of death

T_o=98.6;T_t=79.5;T_s=69; %initializing the variables

t=-(log((T_t-T_s)/(T_o-T_s)))/k;% Calculating the value of t in hr^-1

t_n=(9+12)+(18/60);%converting the time 9:18 pm into 24-hours format

t_i=t_n-t%finding the time of death in 24-hours format

t_ih=floor(t_i)%Converting time to HH:MM format (hours)

t_im=ceil((t_i-t_ih)*60)%Converting time to HH:MM format (mins)

if (t_ih)>=12%Converting time to AM/PM format

   t_ih=t_ih-12;

   s=' PM'

else

   t_ih=t_ih;

   s=' AM'

end

disp(['The time of death is ',num2str(t_ih),':',num2str(t_im),s])

Output:

The time of death is 2:35 PM

Part c:

For calculation of temperature between 9:18 PM and 10:18 PM following data is used

T_0= 79.5 F

T_s=69 F

k=0.15415 1/hr

Code:

%% Calculating value of temperature for each minute between 9:18 PM and 10:18 PM

T_o=79.5;T_s=69; %initializing the variables

t=1/60; %Converting a minute to hour

T=zeros(60,1);%Initializing the array to store the temperature

e=exp(1);

for i=1:1:60%counter for an hour

   T(i,1)=T_s+(T_o-T_s)*e^(-k*t);%Estimating the temperature after 1 min

   T_o=T(i,1);%Changing the T_o

end

disp('The temperature variation with time in mins is as below')

T

Output:

The temperature variation with time in mins is as below

he . if i may ask what i your question exactly?

explanation:

c because the action was the roller coaster reaches bottom of hill (action) reaction would be blood tends to drain away from head

hope this !
