According to Newton’s law of cooling, the time t needed for an object at an initial temperature to cool to a temperature T in an environment with ambient temperature is given by here k is a constant. Assume that for a certain type of container, k = 0.025 min–1. Let t be the number of minutes needed to cool the container to a temperature of 50°F. Assume that = 70.1 ± 0.2°F and = 35.7 ±

0.1°F. Estimate t, and find the uncertainty in the estimate.
