An egg, which for the purposes of this problem can be assumed to be a 5-cm-diameter sphere having the thermal properties of water, is initially at a temperature of 4°C. It is immersed in boiling water at 100°C for 15 min. The heat transfer coefficient from the water to the egg may be assumed to be 1700 W/(m2 K). What is the temperature of the egg center at the end of the cooking period?
