This deals with Newton's Law of Cooling. According to his law, the rate of change of the temperature is proportional to the difference between thetemperature of the thermometer (at some time) and the ambient temperature. In other words, the equation we can use for this problem is derived from thefollowing differential equation, where T is the temperature, Tais the ambient temperature (and could, technically, depend on time),and k is some constant:
.
In turns out that the solution to this differential involves Euler's number and the exp(x) function. It is given by (where T0is theinitial temperature):
We can use this equation, but we need to first determine the value of the constant k for our specific situation. Hence, we substitute the values givenfor a temperature at a certain time t = 1 min (notice we can use any time standard as long as we are consistent because they are all related byconstants), and solve for k:
Now, to find the temperature at t = 2 min (one minute later), we simply resubstitute, using our value determined for k (k = ln2):
Hence, the temperature after one more minute passes is T(2) = 13/2 = 6.5 oC.

(10 marks) A thermometer is placed outside. The initial temperature of the ther- mometer is 2°C. After 1 minute, the thermometer reads 5°C. After 2 minutes, the thermometer reads 6°C. What is the temperature outside? (Hint: Write the DE, solve it, use initial conditions, find expressions for C, ek and e2k in terms of the temperature outside. Relate them and solve for the temperature outside.)
