 <para id="fs-id1165137854986">Exponential decay can also be applied to temperature. When a hot object is left in surrounding air that is at a lower temperature, the object’s temperature will decrease exponentially, leveling off as it approaches the surrounding air temperature. On a graph of the temperature function, the leveling off will correspond to a horizontal asymptote at the temperature of the surrounding air. Unless the room temperature is zero, this will correspond to a <term class="no-emphasis" id="term-00015">vertical shift</term> of the generic <term id="term-00016">exponential decay</term> function. This translation leads to <term id="term-00017">Newton’s Law of Cooling</term>, the scientific formula for temperature as a function of time as an object’s temperature is equalized with the ambient temperature</para>
