thank youuuuNewton's law of heating and cooling tells us that the rate of change of temperature is proportional to the difference between the object and its surroundings. That is,
where is the temperature difference at time . To adjust this to an absolute temperature, we get:
Thus, is to adjust for the surrounding temperature not being zero, and comes from the constant of integration that arises in solving the DE.
For the specific problem, we have and we need at . Substituting and solving gives .
