On a certain dry sunny day, a swimming pool's temperature would rise by 13 C° if not for evaporation. What fraction of the water must evaporate to carry away precisely enough energy to keep the temperature constant? Express your answer in decimal form, to at least two digits after the decimal point.

Muffins are taken out of the oven with a temperature of 200°F and are placed on a cooling rack with a room temperature of 70°F. After 15 minutes, the muffins have cooled to 170°F. If it is recommended to wait 30 minutes before eating, what temperature would the muffins be? Round the value of k to the nearest fourth decimal place.
The formula for converting Celsius temperature, C, to Fahrenheit temperature, F, is F=95C+32. If Fahrenheit temperature ranges from 50° to 104°, inclusive, what is the range for Celsius temperature? Use interval notation to express this range.
We know from Newton's Law of Cooling that the rate at which an object warms up is proportional to the difference between the ambient temperature of the room and the temperature of the object. The differential equation corresponding to this situation is given by y' = k(M – y) where k is a positive constant. The solution to this equation is given by y = M + (yo – M)e-kt , where yo is the initial temperature of the object. Suppose your Thanksgiving turkey is kept at a temperature of 40 degrees Fahrenheit until it is put into a 350 degree Fahrenheit oven. It takes 2 hours for the turkey to warm up to a safe eating temperature of 165 degrees Fahrenheit. Find the values of yo, M, and k, for this situation, rounding your answers to 3 decimal places. Yo= M = k= Regardless of your answers above, suppose the k value in this situation is k = 0.3. Find the initial rate of increase of the turkey's temperature as soon as it is placed in the oven. Round to 3 decimal places. degrees per hour.

Problem 3: Newton's Law of Cooling states that the rate of change of the temperature of an object is proportional to the difference between the object's current temperature and that of its surrounding medium. Let y represent the temperature (in °F) of an object in a room whose temperature is kept at a constant 60°F. The object cools from 100°F to 90°F in 10 minutes. How much longer will it take for the temperature of the object to decrease to 80°F?
Consider a cylindrical flask of cross-sectional area A which is fitted with an airtight piston that is free to slide up and down.
