Problem 2. PREVIEW ONLY -- ANSWERS NOT RECORDED (1 point) At 3:00 pm one winter afternoon, there is a power failure at your house in Wisconsin, and your heat does not work without electricity. When the power goes out, it is 22°C in your house. At 11:00 pm, it is 6°C in the house, and you notice that it is -6° C outside. (a) Assuming that the temperature, T, in your home obeys Newton's Law of Cooling, write the differential equation satisfied by T. (Use k for any constant of proportionality in your equation; your equation may involve T and the values in the problem.) (b) Solve the differential equation to estimate the temperature in the house when you get up at 10:00 am the next morning. Temperature = Should you worry about your water pipes freezing? ? . (c) Think about your equation in (a): what assumption did you make about the temperature outside? Given this (probably incorrect) assumption, would you revise your estimate up or down? (And why?) Revise ? Note: You can earn partial credit on this problem. preview answers Entered Answer Preview
