In Exercise 60 of Section 9.2, we found that the rate of heat loss (in watts) in harbor seal pups could be approximated by

where m is the body mass of the pup (in kg), and T and A are the body core temperature and ambient water temperature, respectively (in°C). Suppose m is 25 kg, T is 36.0°, and A is 12.0°C. Approximate the change in H if m changes to 26 kg, T to 36.5°, and A to 10.0°C.

In Exercise 60 of Section 9.2:

The rate of heat loss (in watts) in harbor seal pups has been approximated by

where m is the body mass of the pup (in kg), and T and A are the body core temperature and ambient water temperature, respectively (in°C). Find the approximate change in heat loss under the following conditions.
