- 4th day of July on its midday, the body of an apparent homicide victim was found in a room of a Hotel in California which is kept at a constant temperature of 80°F. At 2 o’clock in the afternoon, the temperature of the body becomes low when it was checked it is 90.4°F. When the relatives of victim arrived at 4 P.M., they check the body temperature and it drops at 84.2°F. Assume that the temperature of the body at the time of death was 99.9°F and that it has cooled in accord with Newton's law. III.
