1. A thermometer is taken from a room that is 20 °C to the outdoors where the temperature is 5 °C. After one minute, the thermometer reads 12 °C. Use Newton's Law of Cooling to answer the following questions:- (a) What will the reading on the thermometer be after one more minute? (b) When will the thermometer read 6 °C?

A child takes a helium balloon on a plane from Denver (with an air pressure of 0.83 atm) on a cool day when the temperature is 20.0oC to Boston (at sea level, with an air pressure of 1.0 atm) where the temperature is 5.0oC. Assume that no gas escapes from the balloon during the flight. What is the volume of the balloon in Boston, relative to its size in Denver? Group of answer choices The volume in Boston is 0.79 times the volume in Denver. The volume in Boston is 0.20 times the volume in Denver. The volume in Boston is 0.87 times the volume in Denver The volume in Boston is 1.3 times the volume in Denver. The volume in Boston is the same as the volume in Denver.
