Newton's Law of Cooling
dQ = -h(T-Ta)dt = mcdT
Q is thermal energy
h is the heat transfer coefficient
T is the temperature of the water
Ta is the temperature of the air (environment)
t is time
m is mass of water
c is specific heat capacity of water
The heat transfer coefficient h depends on both the surface area and
/alpha = h/a
