Well look each of our eyes looks at something different. It is the brain that collects the image from both eyes and then creates an overall image. Thus if light falls on the blind spot of one eye, it won't fall on hte blind spot of the other eye. Thus one eye will view something. The brain then fills the gap
Oh right. Thank you!

a)i) Because the difference is very less between the values i.e all are near to 1 second. So to actually see the difference between the values, we need to measure it to 2 dp. Else, all the values will be same i.e 1 second.
f) heavier so the air resistance has same effect on both hence same values

Yoghurt.
Heat milk to 90 then cool to 40.
Add bacterial culture. Lactobacillus and Streptococcus.
The bactera create an anaerobic condition and convert lactose, milk sugar into lactic acid.
Lactic acid curdes milk protein, caesin.
This forms the texture of the yoghurt. Flavouring may be added.

In cheese you add all the same to milk but you add rennet aswell.
Rennet clumps with caesin in presence of lactic acid and forms curds.
This is known as curdling. The curds are separated by draining the whey(liquid).
The curds are pressed in moulds and cheese is left to ripen.

Um shouldnt the curve start from above 0, considering there's the initial temperature?
we have to record the temperature of the sensor, not the oil. so initially where it was we dont know. Zero will be ok to be used as the initial temperature here. u may use some other value if you want.

This is the ans
View attachment 41319
we have heated it for 15 minutes only. Which implies it is then cooling, but 5 minutes is not adequate for it to reach room temp

But who said the temperature would reach 90 in 15 minutes?
They just said heated for 15 minutes, so the temperature can be anything, higher than room temperature.

And why should the line from 0 to 15 be with a decreasing gradient? Why not straight line?
