Suppose a boiling cup of coffee at 100oC100^oC is allowed to sit in a room of temperature 25oC25^oC. You notice that a minute later, the coffee is 70oC 70^oC. After letting it sit out for 5 minutes from when it was boiling hot, you decide to put in cream, and the temperature decreases by a half. What is the temperature of the coffee now?

The body temperature T(t)T(t) of a butcher is usually 37.5 degrees Celsius. One day however, he locks himself in the meat freezer until he manages to break out twenty minutes later. The temperature of the freezer is normally -10 degrees Celsius. If body temperature follows Newton's Law of Cooling and he breaks out with body temperature 36 degrees Celsius, how long would he have to be in the freezer for his body temperature to reach 35 degrees Celsius?

Newton's law of heating and cooling
Let’s learn how to cook pulled pork. A pork shoulder is removed from a refrigerator at 0∘C0^{\circ}C and placed into an already-hot slow cooker. The cooker initially cooks the pork for 2 hours on HIGH (150∘C)(150^{\circ}C), after which it is switched to LOW (100∘C)(100^{\circ}C) for another 8 hours. Assume the temperature of the cooker switches instantaneously and the pork follows Newton’s law of heating.
If the pork’s internal temperature is measured to be 70∘C70^{\circ}C at the end of the 8 hours, what is the proportionality constant for LOW cooking?
