Question

16. A certain freezing process requires that room temperature be lowered from 40°C at
the rate of 5°C every hour. What will be the room temperature 10 hours after the
process begins?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Given that

Let us assume that the lowered temperature as negative,

Initial temperature = 40°C

Change in temperature per hour = -5°C

Change in temperature after 10 hours = (-5) × 10 = -50°C

∴The final room temperature after 10 hours of freezing process = 40°C + (-50°C)

= -10°C

The room temperature 10 hours after the process begins= -10°C
