9. A warehouse is being built that will have neither heating nor cooling. Depending on the amount of insulation, the time constant for the building may range from 1 to 5 hr. To illustrate the effect insulation will have on the temperature inside the warehouse, assume the outside temperature varies as a sine wave, with a minimum of 16ºC at 2:00 A.M. and a maximum of 32ºC at 2:00 P.M. Assuming the exponential term (which involves the initial temperature T0) has died off, what is the lowest temperature inside the building if the time constant is 1 hr? If it is 5 hr? What is the highest temperature inside the building if the time constant is 1 hr? If it is 5 hr?
