A hot body is allowed to cool. The surrounding temperature is constant at 30°C. The takes time t1 to cool from 70°C to 68°C and time t2 to cool from 60°C to 59.5°C. Then

  • t2 = t1

  • t2 = 2t1

  • t2 = 12 t1

  • t2 = 4t1


B.

t2 = 2t1

By Newton's law of cooling

- dTdt = α T - T0  2t1 = α 90 - 30 =60α                    ..... (i)and  0.5t2 = α 60 - 30 = 30α              ..... (ii)From Eqs. (i) and (ii),     t2 = 2t1
