hellorainchan Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 Hey friends! I decided to do math IA on Newton's law of cooling which is based on calculus. However I don't know what Im supposed to do. So far I only just "modeling" the formulas but then I dont know what to add next :/ I planned to find numbers and substitute in the formulas and I was also thinking of adding graphs but I dont know how to explain. Here is my brief outline:- rationale- introduction- modeling law of cooling- find some data and substitute into formula (maybe 3 conditions)- do graphs- conclusion I'm quite sure this is not enough but I have no idea what to add more. Please help. Thank you! Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
khimberleigh Posted December 1, 2014 Report Share Posted December 1, 2014 You could analyse the effects of different initial conditions on the rate of cooling. For example which initial conditions lead to an equilibrium solution (ie. dy/dx=0). The laws of physics say that every initial solution should lead to an equilibrium solution so you could prove this mathematically. Reply Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
