Newton's Law of Cooling states that the rate of cooling of an object is proportional to the temperature difference between the object and its surroundings. Suppose that a roast turkey is taken from an oven when its temperature has reached 160°F and is placed on a table in a room where the temperature is 60°F . If is the temperature of the turkey after t minutes, then Newton's Law of Cooling implies that



This could be solved as a separable differential equation. Another method is to make the change

of variable y = u - 60. If the temperature of the turkey is 150°F after half an hour, what is the

temperature after 35 min?



a. t = 143°F

b. t = 148°F

c. t = 298F

d. none of these

e. t = 95°F


b. t = 148°F
