A certain freezing process requires that room temperature be lowered from 40°C at the rate of 5°C every hour. What will be the room temperature 10 hours after the process begins?
Let us take the lowered temperature as negative,
Initial temperature = 40oC
Change in temperature per hour = -5oC
Change in temperature after 10 hours = (-5) × 10 = -50oC
∴The final room temperature after 10 hours of freezing process = 40oC + (-50oC)
= -10oC
