The Roll of Newton's Law of Cooling

1. What is the Newton’s Law of Cooling?
Newton law of cooling is a principle that states by mathematical problems the possible time of death. According these data’s you can verify other missing data: the room temperature, time of death, decreasing constant, temperatures, times, etc. This is specific used in forensic science because of his unique data’s and accurate way to find data.

2. What variables in your problem correspond with the variables in the Newton’s Law of Cooling?
All of them, because we depend on the data to get the approximating time when the person was murdered, constant that affected the corpse and might even help us find out how the victim was killed.

3. According to this Law, at what time approximately the death happened?
4:53 am

4. How does the room temperature affect the time of death?
The room temperature can change, it can be too hot and drastically can turn very cold, and that it definitely will have a negative effect on the body time of death, because of the body decomposition. It ether accelerate the decompose of the corpse or can delay it.

5. How does an illness (e.g. fever) affect the time of death?
Because as same as the room temperature it may probably change, a healthy person is more probably to get an exact time of death than a sick person., this is because an illness may increase body warm in metabolism or it may decreased making secondary factors affect decomposition.

6. How exact is the approximation of the Newton’s Law of Cooling for predicting the time of death?
It is very accurate depending on the data and the situation you are trying to solve. If the person is sick or the room temperature change then the method will not work.

1. What is forensic science?

An application of science and math to find answers in crime to things that do not appear to have an immediate answer in criminal cases.

2. What kind of evidence can be collected in a murder case?

Hair, blood, bullets, clothes, digital footprints, fingerprints, and saliva

3. Why is important to determine the time of death?

To find out the possible assassins, reasons why the person was murdered, to know if its related to another crime and bring the whole case down and finished.

Also to look for possible witnesses, to find out how the person got into the situation and to find out all the possible evidence related to the victims life and fin out other possible candidates that might pass through the same thing. And to determine who is in this case the victim, and who is the aggressor.

4. What methods are commonly used to find the time of death?

· Rate method: measuring events like: body temperature, rigor mortis and putrefaction
· Concurrence method: comparing the occurrence of events that took place at know time

5. What factors are considered in Algor Mortis?
*Size of the body

*Humidity of the air

*Movement of the air

*Immersion in water

*Clothing and coverings

6. How does the environment affect the time of death?

The climate is the main factor that affects a corpse. If the climate is too cold the body will take longer to decompose, if it’s too hot I will be decompose inmaximum 3 days.

7. What can you tell about the different methods of temperature reading of the body? Do they make a difference in the results?All of them get to the same result but use different data to obtain it.They are basically the same, but it is used according to certain data you have or depending the situation because you can use only of this types of methods.

The Goal…
I believe that the goal of this final project is to give calculus a specific and practical application, and most important, a fun application since a lot of people always bring up the commentary that suggests that calculus will not help us in life, and I believ that this project will indeed give us an explanation and will serve as an example to let us know how people apply calculus in their daily life.

I also believe that it’s a way to make us have fun on a project, and do something unique and unusual, something different from regular final projects.

last week!!:P

Hey, what's up!!well as we all know last week was filled with a lot of surprises, I really felt weird, I`m not kidding you I barely slept like a maximum of 10 hours in the whole week, because first of all we had like a zillion of homework and partial proyects, besides that we had to study for the exams and at the same time the biggest award, going to Guadalajara. So if we see it in a certain way, all the effort was worth it because with it came the trip.The bad thing of it was that I got kind of sick, barely could speak form all the yelling and laughing which is affecting me now, but hey!!Who is going to take the fun away from it!!!lol:D!! oooo and on the trip we had such a great time, we talked for hours and told urban legends, that reminds me, today its not thursday, but yesterday, we had to watch out for the LECHUSAS!!l.o.l. I will upgrado some pics later on from the trip, because I forgot the cable, I hope you all had an awesome time.:D see ya!!

♫Yesterday,all the troubles were so far away!!♫

Hi!!!here are some pics from yesterday,yesterday was great!! but,really got me tired. Yesterday we went to Fatima's house to study for our calculus exam, that exam really has gotten all of us studying like you´ve got no clue lol!! but we had an awesome time because we got to pet this little donkey and rabbit,they were very friendly, but anyway we took our distance hahaha!well, not me although we thought the donkey was going to kick me or something like that, good thing that she didn´t.You should've been there!You know, there's something funny,while we were petting this awesome animals the stress we kind of had went away,I guess it was because they felt kind of fluffy.And, that made us concentrate a bit more!! So, if you are kind of stressed pet your pet, this helps alot.

When we went back to our places we were talking about some urban leyends, and some fatal accidents that had happened throught the road we were on, because we happened to see an accident.Talking about those urban leyends was pretty intense hahaha,because who would knew that exactly on the road that we were on like 2 months ago at the intersection a little girl crosses the road when you less expect it,and,BOOM!! that causes you to crash!! and you guessed right, that little girls is an anima or ghost, a lost soul that suffered an accident of the same type.Pretty scary huh? well, it kind of is when you are on that same spot and an accident has ocured at that exact same moment. Hahahaha, so as you can see yesterday was great, we had an amazing time and I loved it because I got to be with some of my friends, see the donkey hahaha, pet the rabbits, study a bit of calculus,went out for a spin and even saw some cockfighting!! so yesterday was a pretty active day, I hope yours was too!!

Sure thing!!

" We are usually convinced more easily by reasons we have found ourselves than by those which have occurred to others..." I somehow got convinced this week that I should do what I believe is the right thing without withdrawing some counseling of course,this is because I learned this past Monday when we were going to hang out at the celebration that was going to be held at Miguel Aleman Ave. and then we were going to keep on celebrating @ T.O.G. Stadium, but the thing is that I got kind of pursued into not leaving school that day until my folks picked me up, so that nothing like past friday( tittle:No more integrals) would happen, (me staying in school for a long time). Thanks to that thought and not following what I really felt like doing the impossible happened, I stayed again @ school for a long, long time. Therefore, by this media I can explain why us people normally trust more or are influenced the most by our owns thoughts than others, because we unconciously believe we know what we want and know what is really best for us, that was the lesson I took from that day, always do what you think is best!!:D any way, I had an awesome time, but I still had kind of regreted I wasn´t celebrating like it was meant to !!

Go YAQUIS!! even thought you´ve gotten a rough time @ the caribean series!!

P.S. I will try to put some videos from sunday´s celebration, it was gnarly!!!
