10-2.Transmission of Heat
normal
A body cools from $60\,^oC$ to $50\,^oC$ in $10\, minutes$. If the room temperature is $25\,^oC$ and assuming Newton's law of cooling to hold good, the temperature of the body at the end of the next $10\, minutes$ will be ....... $^oC$
A
$38.5$
B
$40$
C
$42.85$
D
$45$
Solution
$\frac{\theta_{1}-\theta_{2}}{t}=\left[\frac{\theta_{1}+\theta_{2}}{2}-\theta_{0}\right] K$
$\frac{60-50}{10}=\mathrm{K}[55-25]$
$\mathrm{K}=\frac{1}{30}$
$\frac{50-\theta_{1}}{10}=\frac{1}{30}\left[\frac{\theta_{1}+50}{2}-25\right]$
$6\left[50-\theta_{1}\right]=\theta_{1}$
$\Rightarrow 7 \theta_{1}=300$
$\Rightarrow \theta_{1}=\frac{300}{7}$
