Q1
A thermos was constructed with a double wall, a vacuum layer between the walls, a reflective coating, and a tightly sealed cap. To test it, a student poured in coffee at $75^\circ\text{C}$, sealed the cap, left it in a $22^\circ\text{C}$ room, and measured the coffee temperature every 2 hours.
Data: 0 hr: $75^\circ\text{C}$, 2 hr: $72^\circ\text{C}$, 4 hr: $68^\circ\text{C}$, 6 hr: $65^\circ\text{C}$, 8 hr: $62^\circ\text{C}$.
Criterion: maintain $\ge 60^\circ\text{C}$ for 8 hours.
What is the correct evaluation of the thermos test?
