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.
