Question

(newton problem) A chef drops chicken tights in a into a large container of boiling water. How long will it take the meat to reach 80 degree C if it is known that its temperature increases 2 degree during the first second? (The boiling temperature for water is 100 degree

C. Round your answer to one decimal place.)

Answer 1

The time for chicken thighs to reach 80 degrees Celsius in boiling water cannot be assessed with the information given, as more data is needed about the meat's properties and the heating process.

Step-by-step explanation:

The time it will take for the chicken thighs to reach 80 degrees Celsius in a container of boiling water cannot be determined precisely with the provided information of a 2-degree increase during the first second. Normally, the rate of temperature change would not be linear, as it depends on several factors including the temperature difference between the water and the meat, the thermal conductivity of the meat, and the amount of meat being heated. To accurately calculate the time, one would need to know the initial temperature of the meat, the mass of the chicken thighs, their specific heat capacity, and the rate of heat transfer which can vary over time as the temperature difference changes. As it stands, the available information is insufficient to provide a precise answer.

Answer 2

2 Degrees ⇒ 1 seconds
80 degrees = X seconds

(2) (X) = 80


2x = 80

X = 80 × 2

X = 40

then it will take 40 seconds to reach 80 degrees
