- The cook pot shown in the photograph to the right is quite unique. Pots of this
sort are usually manufactured by stamping a single sheet of heavy gauge stainless
steel or aluminum in a powerful metal press. This pot is different in that it
was stamped from a "sandwich" of steel-copper-steel (note the copper
core between the stainless steel bottom and sides). What advantage would such
a complicated pot have over similar single metal pots when used in the kitchen?
Why have a copper core? Why use stainless steel for the sides and bottom? What's
the deal with this pot?

A liter of warm olive oil was placed in a freezer and allowed to solidify. Temperature
measurements were taken every six seconds for one hour (3600 s). Determine
its final equilibrium temperature.
- Calculus problem. Show that Newton's law of cooling produces a temperature
curve that decays exponentially.
