1. What is the Newton’s Law of Cooling?
A method we can use to calculate the time of death of a person, depending on the temperature dropping of the body.
2. What variables in your problem correspond with the variables in the Newton’s Law of Cooling?
The enviroment
If the body was sick or not
The temperature
3. According to this Law, at what time approximately the death happened?
7:26 pm
4. How does the room temperature affect the time of death?
Depending on the temperature it was, is the change of the temperature.
5. How does an illness (e.g. fever) affect the time of death?
Because it means that the person didnt have a normal temperature, so they cant compare it and it will be not exact.
6. How exact is the approximation of the Newton’s Law of Cooling for predicting the time of death?
Not very exact, but close to the truth, it is useful as a guide.
