A patient has an illness that typically lasts about 24 hours. The temperature, T, in degrees Fahrenheit, of the patient t hours after the illness begins is given by: T(t) = -0.012t² +0.3t +98.7. Use your calculator to graph the function and answer the following questions. Round all answers to 1 decimal place. When does the patient's temperature reach it maximum value? Answer: After hours What is the patient's maximum temperature during the illness? Answer:
A thermometer is removed from a room where the temperature is 70° F and is taken outside, where the air temperature is 10° F. After one-half minute the thermometer reads 50° F. What is the reading of the thermometer at t = 1 min? Round off your final answer to TWO DECIMALS ONLY. Input directly the numerical value for your answers. Say for example: answer = 7.21 degrees, input only 7.21 to avoid errors on your answers.

Problem 1: How long does it take to heat a cup of coffee in a 1000-Watt microwave oven? This means that energy is used at the rate of 1000 Joules per second. Assume that the coffee starts at a normal room temperature of 25°C. Step 1: Guess an answer. Step 2: Estimate the volume of the coffee in mL and the final temperature that you want to attain. Step 3: Assume coffee has the same density and thermal properties of water. Find its heat capacity (specific heat times mass) in appropriate units. Step 4: Use the heat capacity and the desired temperature change to find the energy required. Step 5: Calculate the time required using the energy and the microwave power. Pay attention to units and use Power = Energy/time. Step 5: Is your answer reasonable?
