Question 2 - Page 173 A freezing process requires that the room temperature be lowered from 32°C at the rate of 5°C every hour. What will be the room temperature 10 hours after the process begins?Initial Temperature = 32°C Temperature decreases at 5°C per hour We need to find Temperature after 10 hours Now, Decrease in temperature in 1 hour = 5° C Decrease in temperature in 10 hours = 5 × 10 = 50° C Thus, Temperature after 10 hours = Initial Temperature – Decrease in Temperature = 32° C – 50° C = 32 – 50 = –50 + 32 = – (50 – 32) = –18° C Thus, final temperature is –18° C
