Put each step of algebra on a separate line.
1. A human's normal body temperature is 37 °C (98,6 °F). A 90 kg person gets sick
and runs a 38.9 °C (102 °F) fever. How much heat has to be removed from their
body to reduce their temperature to 37 °C? The average specific heat capacity of
the human body is 3500 J/kg°C.
2. This photograph shows an
electric
space
heater.
Which method(s) of heat transfer move the heat it produces into the room? How
can you
tell?
